Eh, it’s okay to be able to adapt to situations but you gotta have some sort of values/goals to be rigid about.

Sometimes we can’t avoid being pushed in a certain direction and that’s when adapting matters but when given the chance we can think and change direction if the place we are headed to doesn’t align with our values.

Perhaps you’ve caught me on a bad day, but your comment felt needlessly pedantic when, as you note, there’s no underlying disagreement here. If your intent was to expand upon what was implicit in my comment for the sake of those who don’t know what Xenophon or Aristophanes (or even Plato) wrote about Socrates, then fair enough. Apologies for being aggressively sarcastic.
