Default Peeling paint

I have a ceiling with some mild peeling of the paint,

Is it a good idea to stick small undetached peels
back against the ceiling with a touch of paint?



IMO better to drag a chisel across the surface at 45 degs to detach all
the loose stuff. Also, new paint will tend to create more loose stuff.
Not a rewarding job
