What seems like a definition in neutral terms to one person sounds like
bashing to another.
If I say that philosophy is the *art* of asking the wrong questions, as
opposed to the *offense* of asking the wrong questions, some people may
(or may not) find that this puts it in unacceptably positive terms.
