Important clarification: technology that is only found in ruins cannot be traded; i.e. the Unique techs.

I was not aware of that either. Intersting. I wonder if you gift them a ship with the MED onboard could they analyze it?

Analyze and gift work with the same restrictions.

Well ... in this case they do, yeah.

It's just when techs that can be researched are gifted or analyzed that analyzed works and gifted doesn't

You can't randomly get a heavy-mount IDV in the earlier game and you can't stick a heavy mount on a LC.

Other than that, yes.

Hmm, no.
For example, if I analyze a ship with armor, I do get the tech regardless whether I have Chemistry or not.
