Yeah, I actually having a problem explaining...

...Can you use magic to cheat at science discoveries?

Sounds like a good tactical advantage with downsides and obvious counterings but worthy.

I was going to ask about Daemons, but I am about to start reading plague

You could use spellbinder magic to conduct physics experiments, I guess. Nothing obvious to directly cheat is coming to mind.

I feel like trying to make a proper spellchart that was accurate to how it goes in Bindings would take such a long time that I would grow bored of it within half an hour. So, pass, but feel free to make a spellchart of your own.

I am exactly the sort of person who would try to make a legit spellchart, if I had a solid idea of how spellcharting worked. But I don't think I understand it in the right amount of detail.

I sort of feeling like trying now, but would want a simple spell idea to start with.

I‘d do that, but what are the primitives? You obviously don‘t need to deal with “self-sustaining self-propagating electromagnetic radiation with a repetition frequence of about 650 trillion cycles per second, where a second is ‘The duration of 9,192,631,770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the caesium 133 atom’”, or the chemical.composition of some kind of blue dye or the various materials they might be died with. Equally obviously, you don’t get to say “make it blue”.
