Elinor's perspective on people is shaped by her strong belief that others are often insincere. She harbors a conviction that she perceives the world more acutely than those around her, leading her to view their actions as hypocritical. This sense of superiority in her observations makes her skeptical about the authenticity of others, as she assumes they must share the same flaws that she perceives in their behavior.
This unwavering confidence in her judgment creates a barrier between Elinor and those she interacts with, as it colors her relationships with suspicion. Her belief that others fail to recognize the hypocrisy she sees in them not only isolates her but also highlights her struggle to connect genuinely with people, reflecting a broader commentary on the nature of social interactions within the group she belongs to.
