Even if it stayed here, if another enemy worked out how to defeat the ancient shields (eg like the asguard did when they took Rodney and Daniel) then two city ships wouldn't make much difference.
Better still, now rodney can create replicators that do as they're told we could start a new breed of them tasked to build city ships from scratch.
Better still, open a 9th chevron connection for a split second and send a few replicator nanites through to destiny with the sole mission of repairing the ship.
I prefer the idea of sending Piramess to unchartered space though. Beaten up and knackered like Atlantis, it then has to defend destiny and continue the mission alongside it before coming home.
Also on that note, when we see 'Atlantis' leave earth, it only has 3 engines under it. When we see it flying around with our people on it, it has six. How do we know that the city in the tower wasn't the one we saw leaving earth? - It's entirely plausible that the ancients built a new city and abandoned the old one.
