Build Cost modifiers not applying to Great Works - intended or oversight?

[Chep]

Hey there,

yeah basically what the title says. Build cost modifiers (like from events) that apply to either a province or your ruler have no effect on the cost of Great Works and their improvements.

I assume the same is true for the build speed increase from similar sources.

Is that intended in order to limit the players ability to build wonders or not?

I believe this is intentional. There is a separate modifier implemented that does affect Great Work cost and build time, but so far it is only added to Construction technology and the Architect trait.
