No. The designer says that if you upgrade the phase card you are currently in, you get the bonus of the original card, which overrides the Discovery rulebook text saying you receive the upgraded bonus. The upgraded card helps in later rounds. You can also swap an already-upgraded card for the other upgraded version of that phase.
