You gain an extensive understanding of planetary formation, evolution, taxonomy to build tinker structures that artificially restructure worlds to contain sustainable habitations for sentient/sapient life with sufficient time and resources (as well as per-existing conditions). You also gain a comprehensive understanding of sociobiology (stuff like behavioral simulation, population biology and game theory) as well as models on altruism and evolutionary strategies through intuitive socio-metrics tailored to pinpoint precisely how to expedite the growth of complex and sapient life through evolutionary pressures.
