Explanation

Conducting elicitation through Q&A and documenting stakeholder responses is specifically designed to draw out and capture knowledge from people - making encouraging participation its core strength, since the technique actively invites stakeholders to engage, share their perspectives, and feel heard in the process. Prioritization setting (A) is a separate activity that happens after information is gathered, not during the elicitation itself. Analytical thinking (B) is a general competency of the analyst, not a strength of this particular technique. Sharing of information (C) is close but subtly wrong - the analyst receives information; the strength is that stakeholders are motivated to contribute it, which is participation.

Memory tip: Think of Q&A elicitation as an interview - the interviewer's job is to get the other person talking. The whole point is participation, not analysis or prioritization.
