For the more than two decades that I've been playing this game, I've always thought that using spider/spiderling silk to make tailored bandages only made "EQ sense" ... but it turns out it was a real thing!
In ancient Greece and Rome, doctors used spider webs to make bandages for their patients. Spider webs supposedly have natural antiseptic and anti-fungal properties, which can help keep wounds clean and prevent infection.
It’s also said that spider webs are rich in vitamin K, which helps promote clotting. So, next time you’re out of Band-Aids, just head to your attic and grab some “webicillin.”
