There's just one problem: "If a world was habitable, it had an atmosphere as well as a hydrosphere. And if it had both air and water, it had clouds; and if it had clouds, it had an obscured view."

** In a related point, he decides that each planets' shifting cloud cover makes distinguishing between them from space basically impossible (or at least very difficult). Trevize points out that, even without using tools like radar, you can still use detailes such as the tilt of the planetary axis and orbital inclination to learn a few details, such as which hemisphere is currently experiencing winter. Not every planet has the exact same weather patterns.

* FridgeLogic: Despite having lived on a planet with clouds that would obscure parts of the sky, Pelorat apparently never made the connection that those same clouds should obscure a view of the ground from space. (See SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome, where he assumed he would be able to view the surface detail of any planet he visited.)
