The reasoning in the philosopher's argument is flawed because the argument takes for granted that
no one can ever be happy living in a society in which she or he is not intellectually well suited to live
the primary purpose of small political units such as villages is to make people happy
all societies that are plagued by excessive bureaucracy are large
anyone who lives in a village or other small political unit that is not excessively bureaucratic can find happiness
everyone is willing to live in villages or other small political units
