> Pedantry and insight are the same thing

Never met any academic who believed that pedantry and insight are the same thing.

Pedants don't think they're pedants. Like Carlin said, anyone driving faster than you is a maniac, anyone driving slower is a moron. (Anyone less rigorous than you is sloppy, anyone more is a pedant.)

Thank you for this insight.
