Why do you think primary sources often lack insight into the event being described?

Primary sources often lack insight into the events they describe because they reflect the subjective perspectives and biases of their creators. These sources may omit context, fail to capture the broader implications of the event, or prioritize certain narratives over others, resulting in a limited understanding. Additionally, the emotional or immediate nature of a primary source can lead to a focus on personal experiences rather than a comprehensive analysis. Consequently, relying solely on primary sources can yield an incomplete or skewed interpretation of historical events.
