None of these options, frankly.

Mostly for the reason mentioned by Raoul. Although "Magic 8-Ball"'s point is really the same one except for the moronic "let's idolate important people instead of teaching history" bit that is, I think, typical of US highschool history curricula (and used to be over here, back in the day when they worshipped Friedrich II and worse.)

I'm not quite sure how you got the idea that that I want our curricula to "idolate" people, unless you're a fan of hyperbole.

Who isn't?

But you don't, or do only very occasionally. Not when you're teaching history, instead of movie plots.
