Origin[]
Soichiro Honda, namesake of the reputed car and motorbike manufacturer, was always interested in engineering. Under apprenticeship, Honda cobbled together race cars and an early repair lift while learning all he could about automobile manufacturing. During multiple attempts at building a company, he would give somebody more business savvy control while he returned to university to immerse himself in metallurgical understanding. Few doubted his skill as a builder, gained from hundreds of hours of hands-on design. Even as a young scamp, he used a bicycle pedal as a stamp to forge parent signatures on report cards.
Effects[]
Simplifies the process of understanding difficult concepts. Neuroplasticity of the brain is noted to increase during usage, allowing the wielder to connect different ideas together more readily instead of being confused and stubborn trying to piece together facts. It is especially strong when learning technical skills involving detailed handwork or visual inspection.
Continually rewires the brain’s learning capacity, meaning older skills which have been neglected get replaced for new material. Which is fine until people lose their speaking ability or all the unwritten social rules they’ve ever learned, like sneezing into one’s elbow. Or common sense like not bringing a hairdryer into a bathtub.
