I seem to remember that we solved this problem by inventing something called a museum.

Ah, yes. You aren’t wrong, yet some people aren’t shown in museums, but I’m glad you mentioned that :)

A museum is the proper place to preserve and contextualize history. The purpose of a public statue is to give it a public honor.
