You'd only want to use it for an assimilation push. Basically, there comes to a point where it'll take forever to get more food/money to level up buildings, even w/ 2x boosts. At that point, having more BP because it a lot quicker than waiting for more money or food. Getting 2x gold won't help you get food/BP any faster because cows/swordsman bonuses (only things that really have a high cost for food) have diminishing returns and wells get to a point where they take forever to get enough food to level. Also, some builds you really won't need to focus on gold as much.
