请教一下大家以下一道语法题，

The complex tax dispute betweenthe Covered Bridge Mall and Harris Township is not likely to be adjudicated forseveral years, and, in the meantime, both sides are intent on creatingdifficulties for the other.
(A) both sides areintent on creating difficulties for the other
(B) both sides areintent on creating difficulties for each other
(C) each side isintent on creating difficulties for the other
(D) each side isintent on creating difficulties for one another（C）
(E) the sides areboth intent on creating difficulties for each other
答案选C，请问B为什么不对呢？是BOTH 不能和EACH OTHER 搭配么？多谢帮助。

B选项的基本逻辑思维有问题。

能具体点么？谢谢

摘自prep2008：one与another搭配；some和others搭配；each和the other搭配；each other和others搭配
至于逻辑不对的意思，个人理解：both强调的是两个一起做相同的动作，如both of the students are doing homework.而这里强调的是每个个体对另一个的动作，所以用both后又用了each other强调个体之间的不同，逻辑意思不对~
