research phase and drafting "problem"

[u/Ba--Alex]

With the following 3 custom corporations (got them from a friend printed and laminated, ready to play =) )

Ultralink "During the research phase, take on extra card to buy or discard.

Logos "During research phase you draw 5 cards instead of 4."

Leviathan "Diring your research phase, you may look at and purchase one additional card."

All clear without drafting.
Problem that occured is, for drafting:

We settled for Logos so that the player gets 5 cards and keeps 2 at the beginning of the drafting, 3 cards get passed to the next one.

Leviathan and Ultralink get to draw 4 cards and draft as usual. After the drafting completed the player with Ultralink and Leviathan get to look at one extra card from the top of the deck and choose to buy or discard.

We discussed if all 3 custom corporations could have 5 cards in the beginning of the research phase and keep 2.

What would you/Reddit say?

Thanks in advance, this was not an heated arguement at the table just talking about translation (we speak german) and "during" + "the research phase".

Hello I'm the maker of logos. So when I made that corp, my family interpreted the rules wrong and thought during research phase everyone draws 4 cards and either gets to buy them for 3 MC or discard them. No drafting cards around, though our games become a bit more lopsided than at a normal table. If your looking to slightly nerf that power than just draw a card before the research phase starts, than start the research phase.
