Academic friends, if a PhD thesis starts with a factually wrong representation of your work, do you

Thesis: "Asset-based modelling in particular has been shown to be advantageous in a number of respects (Shostack (2014)), including its capacity for conducting automated reasoning over a threat knowledge base."

In fact, I say something on the order of: "This is presented to explain why you shouldn't do it."

@adamshostack @darthnull write the name down, put it in your phone's contacts, and 10 years from now when a special someone tries to interview for Shostack & Associates, have the thesis paper ready.
