Why?
Because it gives a big advantage to the giant races that don't rely on research. I think that's what he is saying.
not just giants but pretty much all heavy bless/thug nations, including Mictlan, Lanka, Yomi, etc... also EA doesn't have as good national armies as later eras, so getting stuck with them for too long, especially if not a bless nation, you're at a severe disadvantage. thinking mainly about Ermor, Ulm, C'tis, Marverni, etc...

I was hoping for something more insightful than this conventional wisdom.
