I can't stop reading Hume and Smith in particular...Theory of moral Sentiments, Inquiry into Human Understanding, Wealth of Nations...everything is so clear now. Any other Scots you would recommend?

No, you've read the only worthwhile thinkers that desolate pisshole of a region has produced in millennia.

I'm personally not into the Scottish Enlightenment because a lot of its big figures were basically just crypto-Anglos, Hume especially

There are loads of great Scottish writers though. Blind Harry, John Barbour, Gavin Douglas, William Drummond, Robert Fergusson, William Dunbar, Allan Ramsay, King James I, King James VI, Thomas Carlyle, Mary Shephard, James Burnett, Adhamh Mac Fhearghais, etc.
