That doesn't matter. Tails knows more about Sonic because he's CLOSER to Sonic. A friend usually knows more about you than an enemy. You talk to a friend about your PERSONAL problems, fears and needs. If you talk to your enemies about your personal stuff you're an idiot because you're giving them an advantage. Sonic is not an idiot so he doesn't talk to Eggman about his personal stuff. And Eggman doesn't talk to Sonic about his personal stuff too. Maybe Eggman is scared of spiders but Sonic doesn't know (and so don't we) because Eggman is smart enough not to reveal stuff like that to his arch nemesis.

Considering that Tails has a big mouth, for example when he accidentally revealed the whole plan to Eggman, it wouldn't be hard to see Tails mess up. Eggman also has his own faults, and he's accidentally revealed stuff to Sonic before, so yeah...
