If so, this cannot be reduced just to a boosted good, otherwise players with a certain boost would have an advantage against others to have the additional benefit of building boosted manufactory if researching a certain branch of the research tree.
I think the idea is that each player would be required to complete the research for advanced manufactories of his/her boosted good - the tech tree would be "personalized" in that respect. And of course we could all research all the technologies at some point.
The Inno games many of us are more accustomed to of course also require us to do research we don't need for anything except further research, but the tech trees are considerably more elaborate, which gives players more of a choice of what order to do things in. That's what feels missing in here, at least to me.
