What do you think? Was Adam Smith ‘odd’

Was he “very talented, but also had some eccentricities. He could talk to himself, had strange gait and speech”.

Should the reader, “mention in Adam Smith essays that he was a henchman of capitalism”? What is a “henchman”?

What did ‘capitalism' mean to Adam Smith, who died in 1790 and the word capitalism was not invented until 1854?

If there is a market in essays about Adam Smith, would the above advice be helpful?

I ‘ae my doubts’…
