Alternatively they could be an attentive observer with no specialization in the field but are simply able to read Rackets like an open book and have the contextual framework to describe his behavior in a way that such a specialist would.
It's entirely possible. If so, ever more impressive. You don't often see people pick up forensic psychology as a hobby. I find that most people tend to proffer their opinions on subjects with which they are most familiar, usually derived from education, training, or employment in that given field, either currently or in the relatively recent past. Sometimes it comes from amateur or hobby involvement, but in those situations I find most people aren't able to offer the depth of detail in a subject that one would typically have from a deeper involvement.
Given the details provided, I would lean more towards the former than the later, but the possibility it is the later can't be discounted. Having been trained in forensic psychology myself I immediately recognized their analysis as part of a classic forensic profiling technique that is often used by investigators or detectives when reviewing statement and interviews, and their application of it was spot on.
My training may in fact have biased my evaluation of what they wrote. However, if they are not a individual that has education, training, or employment in that or a related field I'd say they obviously have an innate talent for it.
It's a somewhat similar situation regarding yourself, but in your case it is a more generalized application. More than once I have seen you reply to a post with a rather nuanced, insightful analysis of a given situation or application of related practical knowledge in the subject. If I had to guess I'd say you're either an academic, researcher, or an engineer and/or alternatively, you're an extremely well read individual that has the generalized intelligence to apply general analytical techniques to a variety of situations.
Or I could be completely wrong on all accounts. Who knows? It's the internet. Reading people can be quite a difficult thing.
