Possible bug or accidental omission

It seems odd that one or two of the races start with a native tech (such as A History of Mercantilism for the Korx) that conveys NO benefits whatsoever. A research cost and it can't be traded but it doesn't do anything? Will this be corrected in a future beta release?

Also, for the Korx, it feels VERY odd that the mercantile race par excellence starts without a market center.

I agree on the no market center. I think most of the native techs are just there to set up the tech trees.

I understand what you're saying, but the thing is, A History of Mercantalism doesn't set anything up, it doesn't unlock anything, it's just a brief history of the Korx sitting there doing nothing.

If you look at the Terran tree, we have A History of Extremes, which similarly gives a (very brief) history of the Terrans, but also unlocks Market Center.

Personally, I think they probably just forgot to include Market Center for the Korx.  ;)
