Musically, I listen to much more Jack White than Edge output. I quite like
the White Stripes and Raconteurs.
I suspect the reason he was on the documentary was that he is in a recent
generation of artists that are guitar enthusiasts. The 3 choices were an odd
bunch to lump together. Style wise (to my ears) Edge was the odd man out.
White has many bits in his work that seem like a tribute to Page as much as
anything.
Edge has a unique style/sound, I like that in a guitar player.

I think war was the first u2 album that got my attention. If I remember
correctly mtv played the hell out if it. I like their records but after
seeing them for the first time last year once is more that enough for me.
I agree with you that edge was the most interesting of the three in This
Might Get Loud. To me it seemed like he was truly humble and realy enjoyed
it. He also seemed in awe of page. Is it just me that doesnt get jack white?
Yes he is talented and works hard but why was he even in that show with edge
and page?
