Options that make gameplay worse should be removed.  In this case it's 
not the igtired flag that's being removed, it is the concept of 
"tiredness".  The only reason we'd want to keep that is for 
compatibility with civ1/2, but I don't really think it's crucial.

However it might be better just to get rid of fractional movement points.
