tech group isn't about tech level. It's about rate of tech advance. Putting the Mughals in the orthodox tech group, especially if it's done briefly is rather hazardous. While in the orthodox group they will garner large neighbour bonuses, particularly if they are small, as they often are. (This assumes that things have been fixed so that orthodox group on average has a much higher tech level than the muslim. As of right now it doesn't always turn out that way in the EEP.) When they bounce back to the muslim group they will then provide all these bonuses to the muslims, particularly the small ones.
Ha! sensing a very weak argumentation here If we assume things have been fixed, the Mughals will not be small often. Nothing should be done to fit in a wrong situation, things need to fit in a right situation.
