The Petra wonder can make deserts far more useful: it increases the base yield of desert tiles to be comparable to grassland hills or rainforest plains, and extends the bonus to oases (but not floodplains). Thankfully, there are a few resources - such as Salt, Incense, and the all-important Aluminum (without which there are no modern airplanes!) - that are found mostly or only in deserts. For any city within or near a desert, the bare desert tiles should be reserved for districts or wonders unless a resource is found there. Without any oases or floodplains, desert tiles are not suited for settlement (except for Australia and Nubia, which can build their unique tile improvements there, and Mali, which gains a great number of bonuses to desert tiles).
