Why would they choose that name for the article when the answer to the question is literally the first sentence? Why make it that the centerpiece of the article when nobody is claiming that anyway? Why is it reiterated so many times? And why does it bother me so much?
The named author might be a real person but this article feels like chatgpt wrote a high school paper with a minimum word count requirement. "descendant of Alexander the Great" appears SIX TIMES on this page.
Personally I found the statement in the image below to be more informative and was probably composed by a more mature hand, at least it made me chuckle.
As did the journalistic capabilities of the academic who wrote that article!
Rather than let such nonsense bother you why not write for them,they pay 50/60$ per article..Can you do any worse ? Get yourself a degree and find out!
