"P is up a lot" Ohhh yeahhh but E is pretty great, too. O is meh. It pops out of the other two. It is a derivative security, but is super leveraged and sometimes you need to buy options. P and E are sort of the same thing at the bottom. Not sure how to extend the analogy tho.

If you classify western philosophers by what they led with, I think it is: Epistemology-first: Spinoza, Descartes, Hume, Kant Ontology-first: Hegel, Marx, Heidegger Phenomenology-first: Nietzche, Husserl, Arendt Treating these as stocks I think E is down, O is up, P is up a lot

Yeah, I find classic western ontology to be mostly meh and as you say, derivative. But the modern stuff contemporary ontologists do is more interesting, but too esoteric for practical use (and often inspired by fundamental physics in good ways).
