A different take on ICS
Ignore me, I'm being a fool.

ICS isn't just about colonizing an open space; everyone is basically grabbing land for the first few dozen turns. ICS is about not caring where you put your cities because at size 1 or 2, it doesn't matter. ICS cities are stacked as tightly as they can be, and most are not expected to grow very much.

This supposed "fix" will do nothing but delay the process a tiny bit. The fact of the matter is that economies of scale still rule most strategy games. Perhaps when playing against a human player, mindless sprawling will be much riskier. But against the comp, I can guarantee this change won't affect much.
