I agree that you shouldn't wait.

As well as the cost being trivial, if you deliberately go several turns without gaining tech through scrapping you may find you come to a bottleneck later on, whether it be through scrappers, pop-drop or fighting.
In large games I often find I am trying to gain a tech level through non-research means for 30 or 40 turns on the trot.
Delaying early on in the game would impact all the way through to mid-game.
