Oh, I don't think we want to turn off the analyze button. Bwahahaha!

Question on trading, though (and this is tied in with the gift/tribute question, since gift/tribute can just as easily be used as a trade): are we disallowing tech trading only or all trading. A side effect of disallowing all trading is removing the ability to trade population for population that can breath a different atmosphere. I'm not saying that is a bad thing, since it seems like a practice that governments probably wouldn't really practice (or at least their populations might object!), but it is definitely an effect to be aware of.

So I guess that leads to the next question, do we want to allow population exchanges, or should the only way to get a different breathing population be to capture them?
