I am confused between the options “insightful(showing deep understanding)” and “thorough(paying attention to all details)”. Could anyone explain why “insightful” is a better fit in this case?
TIA!

Insightful means being perceptive and showing a deep understanding. This fits the tone and logic of the sentence. Poe found gems others didn’t - perceptive
Thorough means detailed, but doesn’t imply judgment or perceptiveness. This doesn’t fit as well.
