Anyway, build stuff.
From a time perspective:
The pyramid kerfuffle here probably needs to be fixed (we need more 20s, stat.). I propose we invest a pile of XP to get at least MedKnow to 10 and then use the Oro/Tsunade notes to assist in boosting that to 20. This should take a little more than 2 weeks[1] in character (2.5 or so?) assuming we have 3-4 clones working on it each day (with current Resolve stats, there is a 93% chance on each roll that we pass that Resolve roll. Accounting for a handful of FP in the bank to invoke Toughened Mind for when the binomial distribution eventually fucks us over on that front should suffice in the worst case/ we don't even fail by all that much on average so whatever lol).
(I dont consider MedNin to be as high of a priority, per se, but we probably want to do that too at some point. Free XP is free XP and solid column stats are solid column stats. We need to eventually boost Sealing up beyond the 20s and I'd prefer to level research stats and other useful stats like Pangolin Earth Armor [2] before RandomEarthJutsu or Cryptography.)
Also I bet @eaglejarl would love to write Hazou going through "Tsunade's Crash Course in Not Being A Shit Fucking Doctor."
This is probably kind of a priority, given that we probably need to keep boosting ES and Sealing. I am sort of hopeful that that level of MedKnow (at least) would allow us to do some basic BioSealing, but YMMV.
(Also it should be noted that PEA is slightly cheaper than MedNin/MedKnow in terms of XP costs, but it is steeper in terms of TIME costs, and I would like to triple underscore and bold that : I highly value our IC time.)

[1] Though I should be clear: Since the 4 SC version doesnt consume Prime's time any, we can mostly run that in parallel with whatever we feel like doing at the time.
[2] Other candidates for this category include Rapport and Empathy, since they are social stats and thus useful. I would actually prefer at least one of those get priority over MedNin.
Pangolin Earth Armor is also a solid choice since its an Earth jutsu that's actually good, and leveling it to 20 is comparable to the cost of leveling MedKnow or MedNin to 20 (it just takes longer since no XP from the notes in this case).
So my preference ranking probably looks more like:
1) MedKnow -> 20 (Actual XP + Notes)
2) Empathy -> 20 (Actual XP) [I prefer this in terms of flavor and I think that Empathy as a stat might be able to work with Cool Ninshou Shit™️ later, potentially. Also Romance.)
3) PEA -> 20 (Actual XP)
4) MedNin -> 20 (Actual XP + Notes)
