Yes, that's how the European minors keep up with the bigger colonial powers in tech developement.
bit of a downer if you are a large low tech culture group
it always annoys me that they dont get any neighbour bonus to research to reflet the sale of guns etc rather like the portuguese did in japan

Well, it does tend to taper off, so if you are large already, adding an extra province or ten doesn't really hurt your research costs (rather the opposite due to increased income, actually)
IIRC, the increased costs stop accruing after the 8th province? Anyone else know for sure? And it was something like a scale from 1.5-5 fold increase in research costs given increasing province number from 2-8.
Of course stability costs keep adding up no matter the number of provinces.
What I've heard (and I don't think it was BiB - number crunching isn't ems style) is that after 8 provinces the costs pretty much balance each other out. The marginal extra cost to research is about balanced out by the extra production.

Speaking of which, I've heard of the "whiteman value." To whom does this modifier apply? Only American indigenous?

I always thought everybody got neighbor bonuses. Do they only apply to Latin tech group pr something?
Only applies within your techgroup. If you're Russia, and you're the leader (i.e., you have the highest tech levels) of technology in the Orthodox tech group, the rest of the Orthodox nations will get a 'neighbor bonus,' regardless if whether or not they're actually bordering you.
