Do "suggestions" mean "suppositions", "assumptions"? Do "insights" mean understanding/thoughts based on intuition? And do "implications" mean "consequences" in this case? | suggestions - plans/ideas/possibilities someone mentions, or the act of mentioning them.
insights - a clear understanding of something, especially a complicated situation or idea
implications - possible future effects |
