[OT/quiz]—Your sentence does read a little better, but the usage error I was referring to was the phrase, “astute point.”

It’s wrong to attribute astuteness to the word, “point,” an inanimate object; rather, the astuteness belongs to the author of the article—or, less formally, to the article itself.

“The efficient-market hypothesis may be
the foremost piece of B.S. ever promulgated
in any area of human knowledge!”
