Discussion cultural settlement buildings need a golden upgrade, and it could make inno diamonds!

I saw the feedback thread on Cultural settlements and I was going to post this there but the thread was closed recently, so I'm making this.

Cultural Settlement buildings are quickly getting left behind with the current increase in power for the new buildings.

They badly need a golden upgrade, and Inno could profit from this by requiring players do 5 walkthroughs of a settlement before they get golden - or something similar.

The whales will speed through and spend diamonds, while the rest of us can benefit from having additional activity (if so desired) and an upgrade to our buildings.

Why yes....yes they do....I'd say just add the golden after the final upgrade and before the repeating 50fp or whatever.

Why stop at gold? Just go all in with 7 special upgrades to future prove retroactively against power leap:
Copper upgrade (strong as gold recent events)
Bronze upgrade
Silver upgrade
Golden upgrade
Platinum upgrade
Diamond upgrade
Ultimate upgrade
Personally like my original post, I would introduce it as an additional time bonus. After the last regular upgrade of the main reward has been obtained:
Any time: 5/30 frag, bronze time 10/30 frag, silver 15/30frag, gold 30/30 frag. additional fragments are converted to the next special upgrade. After ultimate upgrade has been completed, finish special production fragments in the same quantity are rewarded as additional time rewards.
This way settlements still require at minimum 7 gold runs for each settlement to hit ultimate level of its respective main reward building. I’m doubtful event’s power leap is able to catchup against 7x super powerful upgrades within 3-4yrs.

I don't want to see any special treatment for diamond spenders and disliking the concept of introducing the new upgrades as fragments as a separate slot.

I am okay with fragments as a reward, but let it get join hands with final reward infinity slot like 50% chance of getting any one of the reward. So forge points or upgrade fragments like, it can be placed.

Okay, what about next upgrades, if it is mentioned like @drakenridder, keep always low level upgrade(copper) in the final reward with 50% chance and when the copper building constructed, it should produce next level building upgrades as fragments. Same goes for every new level upgrade settlement building.
