None of these are bugs.

For instance your 2nd item: "Recipe flamethrower-turret requires engine-unit, but technology flame-thrower does not." The technology unlocks more than the turret - you can make the flamethrower handheld before researching engines to make the turrets.

Then flamethrower-turret should have its own technology that requires electric-engine.
