When 1 person is telling that the use of "so" is incorrect, then why others giving the same answers? do they want to publish their name?

"So" is not required before 'thoroughly'.
Already thoroughly states a subject is briefly analyzed. Hence So is not required.

@All.
Here no need to write " about". Because we write "about" for some person or things and discuss is neither a person nor things.

Yes. Since "European" is a word starting with a "Consonant sound (ya)", it must only be "a European".

Discuss = describing object.
About = character of object.
Those are nearly similar meaning. So, no need to use one after another.

Discuss is transitive verb, we need its object so it is always discuss something i.e. discuss why, discuss what, discuss how so on?

Here "discussed" means past tense and so "thoroughly" means future tense (not done).
We use "discuss" for the correct sentence.

Anyone tell how to make sentence, I don't know how to find out the answer because I don't know the making sentence correctly.

I think here A is the answer because it should be in present perfect tense.
i.e. We had discussed the problem so thoroughly.
