No, the conscientious mathematician doesn't just adhere to and elaborate the mundane, but here acknowledges there is more to mathematics than we yet have, and strives for truth, here mathematical truth, as it is. As a follower of mathematics, Virgil is of the timid sort, always using argument established by others, thus to lend credence to his opinion regardless of his tactics, vis-a-vis, establishing original thought, here of course in a framework of mathematics.
The conscientious mathematician doesn't just curate and dust.

Ross Finlayson
