Default Messing Starting Tech Levels

If I change the starting levels for various techs in techarea.txt, say at the medium level, and I create a game, would the game load with the standard SEIV files? Hmmm, that sounds confusing. Here's what I mean:

I alter the Medium Tech Start level for Ship Construction to, say, 4. I then create a game and save it. Could I load the game with the normal techarea.txt? All I changed was the starting level of technology. The only reason I'd want to do this is if I wanted to create a PBW game that actually starts at a middle level in the tech tree, and I want to know if all the players have to have the modified Version of techarea.txt or not.
