Answer 1

The detail that reveals Watson’s role as the everyman character archetype in the story is: "I think also that the probability is in favour of his being a country practitioner who does a great deal of his visiting on foot." This detail shows that Watson is portrayed as an ordinary, practical character who is not as observant or deductive as Sherlock Holmes.
