Not a dumbo, but such a massive waste of talent. Nobody would care to remember Newton's name if that wasn't for his work in physics. T. Acquinas is a another example - an extremely intelligent person who wasted his life on a word salad that can now be generated using chat GPT.

"Word salad" - I can't understand it, so surely it's meaningless.

If you think Summa is word salad, then what makes you consider him extremely intelligent?
