Why has E been eliminated?..

Is there any grammatical error in E? or did it get eliminated because it is wordy?.


E uses the idiomatic error "consider X to be Y". The correct usage of the idiom is "consider X Y".

For example, the sentence "I consider you to be smart" is incorrect. "I consider you smart" is correct.
