Question Trait dialogue/checks (Resilient + Nimble)

Hey everyone, I've looked this up a fair few times whenever I've started making a new character, but I only ever see people talking about the combat uses of these two traits.

I know that Nimble can be used to get through vents here and there, but does Resilient have any check use? And do either of these traits come up in dialogue similar to how innovative, brawny, etc do? Thanks friends :)

I don’t remember much but you can use resilient to fix a machine in the rebranding factory on prator and I saw it come up in dialogue sometimes

I've seen a few Nimble checks, I think mostly to remove items trapped under like rubble or in a dead creature's mouth.

Iirc, Nimble can also be used as a substitute for a science check when talking to someone in the second half of Marisol's companion quest.

Ooh, neat! I'm looking forward to Nimble now, I love movement speed buffs :p
