Philosophy is a creativity exercise. It's archaic, and in modern terms, the first step in a long chain of steps to reach a conclusion.

Philosophy is the basis of accumulating knowledge, including science, medicine, and statistics. The highest formal degree in most academic disciplines is still called PhD, or Doctor of Philosophy in the concerned subject. If by calling philosophy archaic you mean that it is irrelevant, then modern knowledge automatically loses all authenticity.

You are mistaken in the belief that there is a debate here. Not everything is a debate. Not everything can have an opinion nor two sides of an argument. Reality unfortunately doesn't work that way.

If parameters mentioned here are fed values of my choosing, I can agree with your opinion expressed here.
