Good catch. I'm stretching. It's well-founded, I think, that he was trying to build a mythos for the British Isles, but certainly did not want it to be taken as an authoritative history like the earlier works were intended. It's fiction that he meant to be seen as fiction. Also, I'm not aware of any writing where he outlines its worth as moral fables, but that it is such should hardly be questionable.
