How have you played this game so long and haven't noticed that SAs create a symbiosis between the attacker and the defender. Attacker gets land and defender loses less land on the next hit. Assuming there will be a next hit, then it's a win-win for both. No? The only time you should be annoyed by being attacked is when you are not expending the "next hit".
Yes, there are occasions when you have more land than the attacker and you lose "too much" land. Annoying, agreed, but no reason to delete your state. If you are stocking and you are actively land grabbing, then you are likely to lose a lot of land too. Don't like it? Go top5 and you lose less land. But you also produce less, because your costs are up. Sounds like perfect balance to me.
