I am unsure what to trust about the knowledge of this essayist if they don’t even mention Le Rat or Jesuit missionary work in the New world.

Apologies if I missed these references in the article, I found that the essayist was confused about the actual roots of the myth. Rousseau comes at least 200 years later.
