Right, and it's hard to object to the advocacy of wisdom. But his view of wisdom is based more on cognitive science than philosophy. He downgrades the big philosophical questions because they're not scientific. I was struck by how clearly this comes out in his discussion with Alex O'Connor. Vervaeke's more interested in the function of mental processes than in their content.
