I certainly think it's worth the History group having a go at preparing a few CEng/IEng forms for the various famous engineering names of the past, maybe in the writing style of the day foresooth, just to give some 'guidance' about the sort of things candidates should be talking about in their applications,and with a style of content that would still be relevant today.
Most of the names will have enough 'exceptional' scores to make up for the occasional 'adequate' (and even then it's usually the 'media' [winners writing history] putting them in a bad light).
Maybe Heaviside vs Preece is a better discussion (add 'debate' to your A vs B search;-)
