Philosophically the Centenary TT may be struggling to be two things to two or more generational categories.
The reality is that it may be trying too hard and in danger of being hyped or similarly being loved to death.
Those among us who read the above may feel it to be a eulogy of sorts. However depending on our age and standpoint we might interpret the meaning of the word eulogy in two ways.

The following musings on Nostalgia may be instructive to those who live on both sides of the watershed of life.
They are by Christopher Lasch an American historian:

"We need to distinguish between nostalgia and the reassuring memory of happy times, which serves to link the present to the past and to provide a sense of continuity. The emotional appeal of happy memories does not depend on disparagement of the present, the hallmark of the nostalgic attitude. Nostalgia appeals to the feeling that the past offered delights no longer obtainable. Nostalgic representations of the past evoke a time irretrievably lost and for that reason timeless and unchanging. Strictly speaking, nostalgia does not entail the exercise of memory at all, since the past it idealizes stands outside time, frozen in unchanging perfection. Memory too may idealize the past, but not in order to condemn the present. It draws hope and comfort from the past in order to enrich the present and to face what comes with good cheer."
