In that sense what she’s doing is just the end result of the ancients philosophy, and it’s not something any present company can actually refute.

Of course it’s undercut by her raging hypocrisy but oh well.
This is exactly why I liked Athena in theory, and was disappointed that they kinda underused her. She is just a logical extension of the Ancients' worldview, in a very real sense the villain that only their society could have produced and given power to. In a weird way, she's the Ancient parallel to Zenos like that.

Really wish she got more story in her own story.
