Though the Camus entry is essentially on point, it glosses over so many more interesting and worthwhile insights from him.

As a fun way to get people to see the value of philosophy I think it’s great, but I’d hope they would then learn more and see the nuances these great thinkers brought to these topics eventually.

Philosophical writing is often practically diametric to bro speak but hopefully that doesn’t mean most interested readers wouldn’t delve deeper.

Of course, it'a a short blogpost not a book-length treatment. Anything of comparable length would've "glossed over" the same things.

Without a doubt. I think a more eloquent and concise style could capture a bit more and maybe provide a little more intrigue, but yeah, there’s no way a small blog post will capture the works of people like Camus.
