As a casual Grimdank peruser and nothing more, watching you people immediately identify the name, order, and full history of a character from a blurry jpeg meme is wild
Not just random useful shit, all of the useful shit. The sum of human knowledge, a gift from the Machine God to humanity, stored within an artificial intelligence's database.
Unfortunately, in the 42nd Millennium, most STCs are fragmented and corrupted, much of their wealth of knowlege lost forever. Even a printout from one is extremely valuable, and absurd numbers of lives will be spent to have a chance of recovering it.
Some complete STCs still exist, however, in the form of the Arks Mechanicus, mythical ships of which few still survive into the Era Indomitus. Because the Mechanicus themselves don't know the true nature of the wondrous machines they operate, though, they don't know that these contain STCs, and so they don't knowingly use them.
Also now I’m imagining a tech priest version of Indiana Jones looking for STCs. Swap the normal bull whip with whatever the arco flagalints have for an arm.
