We also know they built entire nations such as Darastrixhurthi, considered a marvel of structural engineering for the time. So they should be capable of building pretty much anything any other race can, and maybe a little more!But no, they generally have squat for resources, and squat for education in most portrayals. Which marks them as perfectly capable but deeply ignorant. This ignorance could be overcome in a number of ways, theoretically - being integrated into a higher education culture, having a powerful leader intentionally try to educate them (possibly over generations), just having some decent quality books on a particular subject and a tradition of reading those specific tomes, etc.</blockquote>
