He was neither a scientist nor an artist, that is: of no importance.

Nowadays most philosophers are great readers who are not good at math and do not have enough creativity to be artists (many of them are at least honest with themselves and do not go forward trying to deceive themselves and the croud, like the Andy Warhol's, Pollock's, DFW's and EE Cummings of the world).

Just because you don't like their work doesn't denominate / relegate their positions, just as a plumber who has done a shoddy job is still a "plumber" just not one you appreciated.
