It's more of a social faux pas than a prohibition, if you get my meaning. So there are definitely people who push those boundaries, secretly or openly, but they're considered oddballs at best.

The warrior nobility is supposed to be *educated* to an extent (often by priestly tutors), but it's considered unseemly for one of them to do their own research. (Same goes for art: a respectable noble *appreciates* and perhaps patronises art, but does not *make* it.) 4/4
