Abandon is so much better than the old raze.
Remember some of old problems without abandon:
1. very hard to move a city over 1-2 tiles.
Sometimes you have a city planted in middle ages and later discovery a resource is just 1 tile beyond the city. It used to be the only way you could move the city was to let someone else destroy it and then on recapture it would be razed. Or to starve it down to one and stop all food production so you got the prompt, do you want to give up on this city. This did not always work because you could not turn off food production in city center and sometimes that was too much.
2. when razed accidently.
Don't you remember, checking yes raze this city and then, 2 seconds later, saying dummy?
With abandon option you can see the city improvements before you give it up.
3. when raze, lose $$$
Now with abandon. You get a city. When you set production to anything. Before you close the city view, sell all improvements you can. Can easily be 40-80 gold. Then after close city view, when you abandon you have both eliminated the city and gained gold from selling the existing city improvements.
Unfortunately you can't sell those 10 resisters.
