So the question, would people play a version of Evony in which NPCs could not be farmed for disproportionate amounts of food, and would it be more fun?

Someone is bound to chime in and say wall defence would be overpowered, and this is true under the curent system. I am assuming a suitable nerf (wall range maybe, or make ATs cost upkeep) to make this workable.

Discuss.
They'd need to put the defenses at about what they had them at before June of '09...

NOT GONNA HAPPEN.
