Never played with exapnsion of course, but I assumed that the person with the secondary token could only buy tech AFTER the person with the primary, if the primary even purchesed tech at all.
Seems all the hub-bub is because they had to include "everyone with a token, go as fast as you want, don't wait for the other guy". But, playtesting in my head, seems if you just added "wait for the other guy to finish before you pass the token", lets you still buy tech, and play that variation with less players too.
Course, might be different in actuall play.

Yeah. That logic seems sound to me. I think I'll try that and see how it goes.
This logic doesn't follow actually because you could buy two techs almost back to back based on timing by having the primary and then getting the secondary token, lets say, next pass. It would seem the main idea of only allowing only the primary token be used to buy tech is give everyone a fair shot at research.
