While this is fine in vanilla considering the only achievement is for researching logistics systems before purple or yellow science, with mods it can be the case that the achievements you cannot research are not science packs, making the tooltip incorrect
It should probably be something like "You researched a technology too early" if it's not applying to science pack researches

Well, I like the clarity in the base game, and mods can override the locale if they need
(overriding is based on mod load order, so most recently defined locale key is used)

I will call this not a bug
