Philosophy shouldn't merely be taught as a 'core subject', it should be at the centre of all subjects

Please, just stop. I'm not going to get into a senseless fight with you over things I never said, you're misunderstanding what I wrote and trying to argue with me over it.

If I misunderstood what you wrote you could have just corrected me, it's not enough to claim something, you have to justify it (this is a big part of philosophy, too). Furthermore, your comment is just dishonest.

Again, I'm not addressing the author, I'm addressing the person I responded to.

That's literally the first thing I addressed in my previous comment, that user did not suggest any of the claims you've made. Given that part of my reply, how does your comment make any sense?

And you keep harping on "the author, the author."

The first time I mentioned the author because you were talking to me, not the person you've responded to earlier.

The second time I mentioned the author because you were talking about the premise of the article (philosophy should be at the center of every subject taught in school) and not about the other person's comment. Is this wrong?

Back to this:

Please, just stop. I'm not going to get into a senseless fight with you over things I never said, you're misunderstanding what I wrote and trying to argue with me over it.

The funny thing here is that I think the same thing about you and we can't both be correct. Yet, I did write down what I thought you were misrepresenting.

The obvious example is that no one talked about how philosophy should be integrated in the curriculum, yet you made comments like "But just because they are intertwined doesn't mean that every class should devolve into a philosophical examination of the topic" multiple times. Isn't that a misrepresentation, since no one has claimed such a thing?
