The cause of our confusion was that on the starting wealth tiles all the three levels of technology tracks have X's above them.
The reason for this is that you can have two wealth tiles that advance on the same track and hence advance to the second space (for free) as part of your starting setup. (Admittedly there's no reason for the 'x' to be over the third column but it keeps the iconography consistent.)
