Doesn't have to be curiosity, it also works with stubbornness. If you have the opinion that it "should ought to" work a certain way, and the system disagrees, then you will naturally have to dig into it, because you'll create your own breakage. :) I honestly don't give a damn how my system works, so long as it works. It's just that the way I use it tends to make that a very temporary state of affairs. It doesn't particularly matter how you come by the library of a thousand mostly useless low-level factoids about the system. So long as it accumulates, and you keep having to make use of it to work around the problems you yourself caused a few days prior, you won't be able to avoid becoming a systems person.
