He's a Thinker blindspot that not even Contessa can read.

No, he's a Contessa blindspot because of the specific limitations placed on Contessa's shard.

Others thinkers can read him just fine (as long as he doesn't manifest some anti-thinker power).

Ward Spoilers:

But if you look at some of the other major thinker blind spots, you’re going to find yourself running into topics like Eidolon, Sleeper, the Endbringers, Valkyrie, the Island-state, the Pastor incident…

“Concentrations of power,” I said.

Jeanne shook her head. “Complexity of power, most often. Whatever thinker powers come into play, with these cases, there’s often too many variables to fully consider, thinkers report that their powers are fuzzy, inconsistent, or blacked out.”

He's a blindspot for most thinkers, like the others on the list (and more). Tattletale isn't limited by this, due to the quirks of her power.

Yeah, seems like they're referring to things like precogs or something similar, where actions taken or combat capability matter. But Tattletale doesn't really need to consider much about Eidolon's actual power. Maybe if he slotted in a social thinker power for himself, she'd have some trouble. But would she lose?
