How does education function in the IoM (and we have to take into consideration that institutions would be used, that are already in place, which normally means: Emperor worship and the imperial line of thinking).

Looking at what little knowledge the Mechanicum posesses of certain processes (they do not know why it works, only that it works, hence they simply put the same parts together as have been put together traditionally. Without the Mechanicum, you will hardly have any knowledge of more complex things, you will not have science whatsoever without it.

Knowledge being guarded and maxbe the absence of raw material, will lead to a devolution of a world, they will be unable to maintain their level of sophistication and regress into something old, probably more idealising the day sof the imperiumn when they knew so many wonders....

As for the Imperium and old technology: Titan legions use weapons like the "plasma blastgun" or the "plasma annihilator" and they normally predate the age of strife.

The Interex had access to STC tech, just like every other human colony that did not drop back to barbarism.Most of all, they did not have the history of a Xenophobic Empire written all over them.
