I had the same thought re: Theaetetus as exception!! They note it in footnotepic.twitter.com/FaksKk16BQ
Exciting thread, especially if you think (as I do!) that physical depictions of Socrates in the _Theaetetus_--including the nose!--are part of a redepiction of the Theory of Forms we get in that dialogue.https://twitter.com/AgnesCallard/status/1443589122170359816 …
I just read a paper so fascinating I decided you needed a big twitter thread overview.
The paper argues that Socrates did not look like Socrates.

Fascinating. Unfortunately I don't have access to the full text (will try to dig it up). I've thought it's not a stray remark, but actually quite central to the epistemology of the Tht. (upon close examination--IMO--it carries a lot of weight as an *knowledge*-candidate).
