It's impressive to me that Hinata can apply more than Sakura to a fight than Sakura can apply her skills. And it's not like Sakura is the only one who can break down that type of tactical foresight on an enemies movements. Hinata for one can do the same, so can any competant shinobi particularly Kakashi and Sasuke and many others.Karin basically told Sasuke what to do and read Danzou's movements and abilities like a recorder and strategically sorted out Danzou's abilities and opening for Sasuke to win, without her, Sasuke wouldn't have won and figured out Danzou's secret.
Her observation skills > Sakura's.
When has Hinata ever applied more in a fight? And how does Sakura being a genius have anything to do with Hinata's own skills as a ninja? And you're right, she's not. Several ninja have shown the ability to analyze opponents. But, Sakura analyzed the attack power of an S-rank Rogue ninja capable of killing the strongest Hokage of the Sand. That is impressive for an average Chunin. And unlike Sasuke and Kakashi, she had no dojutsu to assist her.
And Karin wouldn't have been able to tell Sasuke anything had he not cut off Danzo's arm. And that's not really a better observational feat than Sakura and Sasori. I'm sorry, it's not.

While we're on the subject of Hinata, I started watching some of the recent anime episodes to get caught up. I forgot how big Hinata's boobs were. And when I saw them again, I realized that Hinata is pretty cool after all. 😐

Yes.
Hinata'd be able to see chakra strings, but figuring out what they'll make the puppets do takes more skill than that. What precisely does 'two finger jerks then wiggle the thumb' mean in terms of blades coming at you? That's what Sakura had to get used to.
