Should you research low (but wanted) levels of expensive tech first?
I ask/suggest this because the "10/level" component of the cost is multiplied by the cost factor, so upping a level in a cheap tech makes your expensive tech 17.5 resources more expensive (35 in ST), doing it the other way increases costs by just 5 resources (10) - a 12 (25) resource saving...
