Realistically yes, but gamewise the additional amount produced never amounts to anything.  Otherwise you should get some small increase, +1 for every 5 (or whatever) pop.
Your agonizer, please.

Perhaps something to mention to Kyrub or Yitzi then? :)

Well, I have no idea of what would be "fair," and I was just discussing BU's premise.  Sometimes gameplay trumps realism.  If you didn't get a standard amount of resources with your base, and your starting base were on a flat, arid, low square (no look first), so you were penalized on everything, you'd be screwed.
Your agonizer, please.

I've thought about base square yield...and anything other than what it is would be seriously worse for gameplay.
