So, lets say you have a day 1 account, and have done super well, perhaps even spending a ton of diamonds. You have, although, researched all of the squad size increases. Lets call this city "Battlemax" You start a new world, which we call, "PacifyMax" and play it for 4 months (expertly). But now you have less time and must abandon one, so which do you abandon? Well lets look at the numbers...
First, this lets us know that it takes +139% Battlemax more resources than PacifyMax.
Well, if hypothetically, Battlemax has every battle AW maxed, they are getting:
34% more damage on 4 of 5 units (Light melee has no boost) and 25.5% more unit health. But lets be generous and round that all up to 134%. Each unit is worth 1.34x more.
That's 134% to 239%.... Battlemax is a loser by a massive margin.
Lets look at Goods, now:
Battlemax produces 700% goods (relics) + 236% (lvl 25 mountain halls) for a total of 936%. Pacifymax produces 700% good (they did tournaments, and yes, it is possible to hit 700% in 4 months, that's about 10 tournament provinces with the first being completed fully, and the last few only being 1 star...)
So Battlemax is at 134% goods to PacifyMax's 100% goods. Again that margin is far too massive than 239% to 100%.
IN ADDITION to all of this, there isn't much of an advantage to going up in ages in terms of tournaments. In age 2, you can get to 1.2 million gold capacity. That's enough Gold to get the prerequisite expansion for ORCS (160 provinces). In other words, you could be a level 2 town, with 20 tournament provinces, 700% goods production, and super easy battles/cater.
In other words, have you wasted all your time on a town that has squad size increase researches? Yes.
This knowledge really pushes me towards quitting this game. I don't want to, but the alternatives of continuing to play my gimped town I've spent 9 months on, or starting fresh, are both depressing.

Squad Size = N * (N + 1) * 1.5 + 6, where N is the number of researched SS upgrades
I'm surprised that Inno did not publish such information.The research of these upgrades does not give anything useful increasing requirements in troops and resources for tourneys
For a long run research these technologies for disadvantage of yourself only. This is a huge imbalance in tournaments.
If you do not research all 14 optional upgrades # 3,5,9,13,15,17,20,22,25,26,28,30,32,39 then the difference is 2346 (39 squad size upgrades) / 981 (25 squad size upgrades) = 2.39 !!! times the bigger needs in your troops and the enemy squad sizes and catering cost are proportionally.
The difference between those who from the dwarves chapter (from upgrade #17) did not research any optional SS upgrades and who researched all of them
2346 / 1401 = 1,67.
It's unclear for me how these upgrades in Inno's view are related to increased production of resources.
