I disagree. When you have very expensive, well equipped, and very fragile mages, like for example Pythium, Burden of Time can cost you thousands of gold in one turn. In a MP game I am still in, Arcocephales cast Burden of Time after he lost a major battle, I guess as a way to get back at his enemy.

The Burden of time got dispelled the next turn, but no less than two artifacts appeared for forging in that turn. [...]
That's a very extreme case, and as such it doesn't invalidate my point. I've been at the receiving of dozens of BOTs myself (mainly because the AI used to have a great liking for it), and I've never been close to losing *thousands* of gold in a single turn because of it, not even a single thousand. A small hundred would be a more accurate figure.
