Very very interesting piece Sieran.

Phronesis is a type of wisdom or intelligence relevant to practical action in particular situations. It implies both good judgment and excellence of character and habits, and was a common topic of discussion in ancient Greek philosophy.

In Aristotelian ethics, the concept was distinguished from other words for wisdom and intellectual virtues – such as episteme and sophia – because of its practical character.

There are different 'kinds' of intelligence.

We distrust not so much the intelligence but the purpose.
