Or the prisoner/movement bug to give you another example.
Claim gold or fast study are not even close a compensation. An extra noble
means more than the once gained fast study or the claim gold. Just figure it
out what a single noble could earn for you each turn? Let's say 800 gold
with a trade route at least? The only compensation is regaining th lost NP's
or a heck of a lot claim gold/studypoints.
