While this is not an formal function of the experience, it is reinforced by developer CCP's hands-off approach, significance players have essentially developed it from scratch.

 "Players in an espionage metagame get to use cunning and adjustment as a expertise, which is unusual in activities," he ongoing. "For those of us who like that kind of factor, it's a huge sketch."
