It might just be me, but every time I see a movie where the Human race is nearly defeated by aliens but in the end defeats them (such as ID4 or WotW), instead of thinking "Oh no, how will the human race recover" I always think "Now we can analyze the alien technology and then start expanding into space"

The only problem with that is you know we would only gain one level in each form of technology more advanced than our own.

No, we'd gain one level per ship that we analyzed, more in techs that provide multiple components that the aliens use. We'd also get to skip all those expensive theoretical techs they had to research
