Mainly, CLULESS punted on protoculture because it's not part of the actual stories of any of the animation that was used to make Robotech. The UF universe's Veritechnology and the like are derived from the Macross tech base; the Genesis Climber MOSPEADA stuff is linked in via a different arbitrary handwave, like every other disparate SF element in UF. (That's why the Reflex furnaces work; in Macross they're just big Super-Technological Science Fiction Power Sources, not... whatever the hell they are in Robotech.)

Or, if you want to get metacontinual, because I think the whole "protoculture = semi-mystic alien power source" thing is stupid.
