L10 Constructs-grade Storm Phoenix (so as max as it can be) produces 140K supplies every 48 hours, so 70K daily. If you quest cycle 2x L1 workshops (so 8 squares, no requirements, can be demolished and rebuilt instantly at any time), they can produce the same (12K x 6 times a day 3 hour collections). So purely for supplies I wouldn't do it. Other people have different views on quest cycling, so it might be worth for them.The math wizards can probably sort this out in a quick hurry -- but wouldn't the supplies output from a reasonably leveled phoenix be a worthwhile option to replace a large workshop (along with the supporting pop / culture)? That would free up some room for even more shanty town bits for events!!
Of course Phoenix does other things, it just doesn't excel at any (compare with the Fire Phoenix special ability - there is really no viable alternative for what it does).
