Input and implantation were two different concepts. Input was to install a book in your head. Although there was knowledge in the book, you had to learn and understand it by yourself before you could slowly master it. However, plants were different. Plants were to directly put some knowledge into your head, making you feel that the knowledge was originally in your head. You knew it and could use it directly without having to understand it yourself.
Of course, these two methods had their own benefits. The method of inputting knowledge required one to understand it by themselves, so one's impression would be deeper. One could even obtain many extended knowledge from this knowledge, and this knowledge would all be yours. However, the effect would be slower. After all, it would take time for one to absorb, digest, and master this kind of knowledge.
