Did Porphyry and Iamblichus actually get filtered by the Enneads? I really respect them and I didn't believe one of the anons here who told me that they got filtered, but apparently Porphyry did some weird syncretic shit with Aristotle's Categories that doesn't mesh well with the Forms, while Iamblichus' statement that the rational soul does not dwell among the Forms straight up breaks Platonism and shifts its focus from an ontology of Being to an ontology of Becoming. Both of these thinkers are still super valuable but I am surprised at seeing such major doctrinal errors.
