Having said all that, I say good riddance to the 2-point rule. Its elimination was a good thing, as was the change in farm scoring. There are other reasons not to spend your turn on a 4-point city, and if it does happen on occasion it's certainly not the end of the world.
why is better to use your meeple elsewhere even if not scoring any points yet? I'm genuinely interested in knowing why is better. For me, and I'm a beginner, it seems better to score these 4 points on and on in the early game to acquire a lead.
On some occasions you might even complete an opponent's 4-point city on your turn if any other features on the tile score you more points, or give you some other strategic advantage like providing a way onto a big farm.
