Who even has time for that? Do you think that the people behind palantir, icarus and sauron have time to read google summaries? They’re too busy remaking the world!
Anyway, if you’re successful enough you’ll eclipse the original source in terms of importance and all the search engine summaries will be about you anyway, so any time spent learning anything before that will have been completely wasted.

Thiel has spoken enough on his love of Tolkien that it’s pretty clear he’s a big fan of the books, meaning he knows what he’s naming. A lot of these people are actually pretty devoted fans, they just think Saruman/Sauron/etc had bad PR.
