It does make it less critical. You can shut off your unit-producing buildings or your resource-gathering buildings in order to run your shops. Or vice-versa.

Concerning the cost or net gain of Gold? Gold is simple enough to get in this game through Raiders dropping in. An inefficient use of Gold can be covered up by throwing in five Raider battles or so, or by doing PvP for the first two rewards every day.
