Ah, but Socrates did not play chess.

You have taken to defending his logical error in Winter's thought here

Actually, Phil, I'm not really interested in or trying to defend
Winter in this particular instance. I largely agree with the OP,
Offramp, that Winter's insistence on "expungement" is making too much
of this. A minor rephrasing would have been adequate. However, I did
think it worthwhile to note what real evidence Winter had published
about the actual provenance of this apocryphal and/or misattributed
statement.

rubbishing someone who points it out - -

All I'm "rubbishing" here, Phil, is LP's puerile 'But there's no
proof Capa didn't say it!' comment. It was Offramp who first pointed
out Winter's statement, and I did not "rubbish" him.
