The 50>500 idea would be terrible for game balance and in-game "story" consistency. I'd like a disband function to exist, but it would be obviously and seriously absurd for it to add more population than got deducted during recruitment.

Think about it: then you could spend money on recruit/disband cycles to increase population. This makes no sense whatsoever in story/world/realism terms.

I do think there should be a disband function, but it should only be a convenience for unnecessary troops, not a bonus. IMO, you should have to keep paying upkeep for the disbanded unit for another 1-3 months after the disband (retirement package!). And certainly no population gain, unless there's going to be population loss with recruiting.
