Yes, difficulty scaling in CIV just equates to giving the AI unfair starting points and making it super easy and cheap for the computer controlled players to build advanced, OP units.

Not just starting, the AI gets significant overall resource multipliers as you increase the difficulty. [1]

Try V with the Vox Populi mod. While it's also changing tons of mechanics, it vastly improves the AI by a ton.
