Answer:  It makes him cautious about new settings yet open-minded and critical of what he experiences.

In "By the Waters of Babylon," the narrator inhabits a post-apocalyptic world near New York City. The world as we know it has been destroyed and he lives in the future. The narrator continuously wants to acquire more knowledge, and explore the world, and he is very knowledgeable about the things that his tribe cares about. This knowledge makes him cautious about exploring new settings. However, it also makes him curious, open-minded and critical about everything he explores.
