Answer 1

The idea most closely associated with Plato is that he "analyzed how people used and could use logic." Plato's dialogues often explore themes related to logic, epistemology, and the nature of knowledge, and his work laid the groundwork for much of Western philosophy and logic. Additionally, while he did indeed praise Socrates, who left no writings himself, his own achievements extend beyond that to include his analyses of logic and knowledge.
