...I played a researcher Solar Exalt.

I mean I had some basic walking around martial arts, and I could cast flying guillotine in a pinch. Still, I was mostly interested in ancient history and the lore of long forgotten devices of the prior age. ST was tickled pink someone bothered. It let them include a lot of the funnier stuff Exalted has. I got to save us all by shutting down a tower on the edge of creation. Spent some willpower on the checks to be sure. It was a Gold Faction game, by the way. Not much to say since it was short lived, but your GM/DM/ST does notice and care so long as you are leaning into skills that are INTERESTING to use.
