I'd prefer not to think about overhaul compatibility right now, mainly because I have a lot of other things I have to work on first, and there's three separate tech trees I have to do, not just one. Also, tech cycles usually indicate that there's a progression incompatibility, which are usually harder to fix than just making something load; It requires more thought and effort for game balancing and design. The good news is that someone else could make a mod to add compatibility if they want, and that's if I never get around to adding compatibility myself.
