That goes to the same issue as with walls and other buildings.... obviously it can't be done within the current architecture of the game, or there are certain "exploitative mechanics" that the devs wish to avoid by doing such things. Have a problem with a troll/spy player building too much? Imagine how much worse it would be if same type of player can easily destroy.

But its already been stated that the str required is easily acquired so you dont really stop people from trolling. Someone with Oath privileges can just invite a player to the village, player leaves, repeat until auth is 0. Then they can destroy the idol with LESS strength than a banner. A wooden post with some cloth that takes nothing to build is harder to break than the heart of the village.

I get the idea behind the strength requirement, it just doesn't work. The thing that keeps people from destroying your banners over night are the permissions.
