If that ship had two components of different levels - say one "Shield Gen IV" and one "Shield Gen V" - you would get two levels in shields (assuming your shield tech level was less than 4).

I think, but I'm not sure, that the order of the components matters too - in the above example, if you were at Shield Tech level 3, and the components appeared in this order:
1) Shield Gen V
2) Shield Gen IV
then you might only get one level of tech. (ie, SG V gets analyzed first, moving you up to lvl 4, then the SG IV gets analyzed, which gives you nothing).

Again, not sure on that Last point...

Actually, I think that is a bug that MM is working on fixing for the next patch. At least, I hope he is fixing it.
