Otherwise, you're shafting the other players in the game, not just your nemesis, kinda like quiting a game of risk or monopoly. The big bad probably gets to gobble up the AI run nation quicker than it would have against you.

This is the key to the whole thing. I
do still have a lot of territory. However, I'm incapable of defending it. My nemesis may gobble it a little more quickly against the AI, but not a whole lot more quickly. Nonetheless, I acknowledge that I wouldn't be doing the other players any favours by doing this.
But there's another issue. As you say, it's not a "boatload of fun" playing positions like this. Where does my obligation to spend not-fun-time in order to protect other people's fun-time start and end? Some such obligation exists, I would say, but it may be that I can't play as well as the AI in the time I'm obliged to give.
