i always found it interesting how quite often in the Republic, Socrates would just blatantly change the basic underlying premise of whatever they were debating, and most of the time nobody calls him on it...
In arguing about what makes a just man, he goes straight to extrapolating what a just city is instead...."first in cities searching for what it is; then thusly we could examine also in some individual, examining the likeness of the bigger in the idea of the littler"....pump the brakes playa, that wasn't the question asked nor the basic of the two arguments you just listened to
