Is the intentional or the unintentional wrongdoer better? Hippias effectively contradicts his escape clause (where he pointed out that the intentional wrongdoer is considered by the Many to be worse) by choosing the intentional wrongdoer (Hippias has built his reputation upon the Many's admiration of ability per se). However, as he points out, the fields Socrates has chosen are running, wrestling, and other physical pursuits. The implication is that they have nothing to do with criminal wrongdoing and therefore should not lead to a refutation of his escape clause.
