Two things about the population control. A - They added the ability to "deactivate" buildings precisely because people were actually deleting buildings rather than keeping them up. B - Deactivating resource gathering buildings is probably the best way or recouping your Workers if you need them for your shops. Reversing this when you need resources can be annoying, but this also works.

Personally. I have six Warehouses. I have not had serious Population troubles, but this is primarily because I kept at most four shops active. I USED to have three Fields, two Boar Pens, a Brewery, and a Tool Shop until I realized I needed the resource storage more than the faster leveling.

Of course, you're welcome to do what you like. My advice is just to figure out what is worth deactivating most of all.
