I've been noticing this mostly in the early game, when corruption is not an issue and when using an entertainer would unnecessarily slow my growth. We're talking less than 6 towns.
In fact, had it been after Expansion was over, I'd never have noticed. But when there's only 3 or 4 rows(cities) and maybe (edit)double that in citizens _total_, anomolies are hard to miss.
Additionally, once your important cities have grown enough that you have enough commerce, I doubt that rounding anomolies crop up nearly as often, though I haven't put pencil to paper on it.
Hermann - this is probably a very easy amount of MM to add to your bag of tricks - nowhere near as cumbersome as a settler pump or worse, a settler pump sharing tiles with a worker pump. All it requires is that you create slider slack with the Research slider before taking the slack back in with the luxury slider. Since the slider is a trial-and-error sort of interface anyway, it's a rather small variation on your normal mouse-clicks.
But yeah, if I'd found it on purpose, that would be something truly extraordinary for me.
