Modding things away is not a good thing for diversity. If some people want to spam clams its their decision. Other people can use that against them and attack right away.

In a special situation, like with 1500 Provinces, where a map is simply to big so the abuse of it is too much, one can simply make a house rule about it and rule them out.

I for one prefere 100 province maps and just sometimes 200provinces, if more players are availible. And its not an issue there. And yeah, i can remember clams beeing much cheaper in earlier dom versions.
