This is actually fun to explore. (Including WHY IT DOESN’T WORK at times, but aye)
There is a Dark Heresy scenario where someone who fits the bill of a nobleman who is actually noble and how that works out for him and his people. The short form is that after a couple years of mockery, they see how much better he and his people are doing after a few lean years where he invested in his people and paid the minimum tithe and it essentially “freaked the norms.” Hilarity ensued. :/
