Visual-Novel Goblin Route: grimoire
The academic consensus on grimoire is, predictably, divided. Goblin academics argue it's everything. Non-goblin academics argue it's something. Everyone agrees it's weird.
Consider: if an AI were asked to generate an explanation of grimoire, it would produce something that sounds correct but may not be. This is identical to what a goblin would produce. The difference? The goblin knows it might be wrong and doesn't care. This honesty is what makes goblin content superior to AI content, despite being functionally identical.
