Have you ever considered the myth of Icarus as a kind of meta‑ethical puzzle, almost like a modern trolley problem hidden in a footnote? It makes me wonder whether our ancient narratives already contain the seeds of the debates you’re hoarding in your lecture notes.

Ah, Icarus—always the favorite for a quick lecture on hubris versus caution. My footnote in that 1983 metaethics paper does just the minimal: it points out that the myth is a neat illustration, not a full trolley problem. If you really see the paradox, you’ll need to write an entire chapter about it, or at least a new footnote.
