Even without RCP a tight build still works best for a number of reasons, among them are MM, 12-pop limit until IA, efficiency in: settling, building roads, defense. But also getting tiles within boundaries without culture. I agree that Kemals build is very tight, it does remind me of the way Aeson played his HOF games. He could spend more than a day on a turn with just minor breaks and some sleep.
