since you like castling and ryhleh is just designed for the watchtowers do you castle your coastal provinces then or not ?

what do other serious ryhlehplayers do to minimize the harm done by the stupid hybrids ?

I do, but I've never encountered a problem with huge numbers of hybrids. R'lyeh has the easy ability to move them into battles via Gateway, and if you run them into nearly anything, they tend to die rather quickly. If their constant running bothers you, try communing up for a nice casting of Growing Fury, which should helpfully make sure they fight to the death. All in all, I've never had so many hybrids that they've actually caused a noticeable upkeep drain. Maybe I just abuse them more than you do.

hm so if you play at faerun e.g. when you have e.g. 20 coastal provinces and 150 or so in total you gather them together every ~5 turns to send them on a suicide mission ? that's horrible unneeded micromanagement ihmo

perhaps you are expanding fast enough and doing this every now and then but it's simply unneeded ihmo.

in 20 provinces you get about ~40 at least per turn , that's about + 25 upkeep per turn .
if you are in a pattsituation for some turns or even loose some inlandprovinces it sucks ihmo

perhaps you didn't notice it because you always win anyway
