This was a rule that was added because of the Axis advantage in earlier games being able to bridge. From Italy to Africa and Japan to Korea, the axis had great advantage with that plus a defense of 1 so I assume transports at 0 forces the axis powers to actually commit a naval defense.
Rule Clarification–Technology Breakthroughs.

Question: Lets say I buy 3 dice and get 2 6’s. Do I only get one breakthru or 2 breakthroughs now?

No you only get one breakthrough.

that is why i hate the oob rules for research is that is total crap for $5 a pop but generalhandgernade’s videos on it are the best

I reckon you should get two rolls and if you roll a tech you already have, you should get a re-roll. I believe that the above is the correct answer according to the official rules though.

Everyone should just get some research tokens and play by my rules. I’m in the middle of a game right now and it’s working out to be the best house rule I’ve ever seen by a mile. Germany has 3 weapons, Russia 1, Japan 2, US 2, UK 2 with one token still to develop and share, Italy 2, ANZAC 1.
This is after the 4th round;
