Oh, my! If this is even remotely possible, what light does it cast on
the claim of Eucleides at the beginning of Theaetetus to have read
his notes to Socrates?
If that is possible then The Theaetetus represents, if not the actual
dialog of Socrates with Theodoros, Theaetetus and the rest, at least
the dialog cooked up by Eucleides and Socrates.
