^To you it may seem so, but it clearly didn't bother A that much. After A sacrificed his arm, he saw he could break Susanoo rib-cage, so he knew his next attack(leg-drop) would kill Sasuke.

Yeah, intelligence is a tricky one. I've never understood how certain users can say Itachi and Sasuke are more intelligent than kage, or how kage are suddenly incapable of being strategic in combat.
