Yes, I noticed the lack of Arabic philosophers right away. That's a big oversight, because frankly, they're a big part of the medieval tradition of preserving and expanding on the Greeks, particularly Aristotle (it's modern ethnocentrism that thinks of the Arabs as wildly foreign relative to the Greeks). But again, there's no reason the data can't be expanded to be more extensive and inclusive.
