Gnome engineering is about engineering theory shaped to serve our needs! Our schemata allow us to make devices that control the world around us; the manual you read covered this.
The manual also covered our ages old oath of secrecy on our schemata. Once you become a gnome engineer, that's that. There is no access to goblin engineering at all.
If you still want to become a gnome engineer, sign this document pledging life-long secrecy and speak with me again. Think about it carefully, [your name].
