There’s not really any ‘Plato.’

It’s all allegedly Socrates in his dialogues.

Unless it was actually really all Plato. And Socrates was just made up.

Then Xenophon, who also wrote Socratic dialogues including an account of his trial and execution, had to be in on it too.

Those Greeks were devious, I wouldn't be surprised.
