'more than others spotted' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'in part suggests' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'part' becomes 'pt' (abbreviation).
'suggests' becomes 'implies' (implying is a kind of suggesting).
'pt' placed around 'implies' is 'PIMPLIEST'.
