The Inventors always gain the tech card, and its landmark if it reaches the top row. Their own benefit is conditional: they gain it only if the targeted opponent also gains theirs. Since neither then gains the benefit, the landmark tied to it is not awarded at that point, but it can still be taken after a later top-row upgrade.
