Pinpoint 736 Answer & Full Analysis
At first, this looked more like tourist destinations than the real category. Hamilton pushed me in that direction immediately. Sofia kept that theory alive for a moment, but Lima still did not quite fit.
That was the moment the first idea stopped working.
Then Lima made me stop thinking about tourist destinations and start thinking about the real category.
Hamilton fit once I read it through the answer.

Looking back, the answer feels obvious in the best way.
