How is this an issue at all? Plato died long ago... but he gave plenty to us that we recognize his name after thousands of years.

It seems dishonoring to think Plato's voice is deceased... He is a distinct individual with a strong voice... and he is remembered well today. So long as one of us remembers him: he will not be truly dead at all... only incapable of saying something new. That neither detracts from what he said, nor from what we remember of him.

So I actually disagree with adding (deceased) to the words of people... who continue to 'live' through what they have written.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
