Too depressing. I imagine one of my own students, ten or fifteen
years from now, producing something like this.

Although, with all modesty, I don't think any of my kids who
manage to remember Aristotle and Plato will have entirely
forgotten Parmenides. I'm hoping they'll be a little more skeptical,
too, about Socrates' posthumous PR machine.
