Hello:
With the recent mod updates, the workshop science pack no longer appears to be getting added to any technologies after it is researched, so you never actually need to build any workshop science in order to continue researching. For example, logistics 2 and plastic both previously required red, green, and workshop science, but now just require red and green. I just loaded up a game with just space age and workshop science installed (no other mods), and the problem persisted there as well.
