Too much technical and ambiguous imo. The danger with comp is that a

Modal logic is generally considered as an invention of theologian. It
has been a practical tool for religious metaphysics among Middle-Age
theologians, especially in Middle East.
You could as well have said "Scientists, Start Worrying to have to
ReStart the Study of Plato's Theology".
But I am not sure we should start worry people with a subject which
can so easily give too much metaphysical vertigo.
Take it easy,
