Turtling was never broken :p
Inclination to turtling was never an issue with game mechanics in the base game, it is and always was an "issue" with groupthink play style. That being said, I would agree here in saying it was never broken.
The more games your group plays, the more you should come to realize that it is beneficial to attack early and often. But if everyone in your group are completely averse to any form of risk-taking in games, then this may never be "fixd" as you put it.
Of course, some of the more (early-)defensive races can actually benefit from this strategy more than others.
