Cartography Expeditions (Expeditionaries?)

Wouldn't it be neat, if there were NPCs that were generally just super curious about the world and set off. Essentially a non-hostile Villager party of like 3-5. They sell maps of the near-by area, paper, compasses, maybe even some books.
These Cartography Expeditions come in here, look around, and generally being interested in all these crazy things players have built.
It feels like the Pillagers are in awe of what's being built here, they raid these villages all the time but none of them have built anything like these, and I thought. Why aren't villagers this nosy and awe-inspired?

EDIT: I was also looking at it after posting this and came up with a bit better phrasing. The Pillagers are these curious creatures who look like they want to know more about the world they live in. This is my basis for the Expeditionaries. They'll go where the player(s) is and genuinely explore the place, not going inside because they're decent entities. To the expeditionaries, the players are just some kind of heightened intelligence super illager.
