Doubtful. Any 'reading period' is merely a gestation period for greater action. The organism is likely unaware of it, but as it collects more and more data, it is instinctually doing its best to decipher its position in reality in order to best decide how to escape it. The being then plans its new trajectory to control whatever mortal woes its environment naturally burdened it with, and then enacts it. After all, for what purpose would data exist without actionable interactivity? Reading for the sake of reading is just another devious time siphoning mental masturbation. If hitler had not been hitler, it would have been another by an other name. Neo nazis scarcely ever understand inevitability.
