On the other hand life is full of those kinds of "bad questions": poorly framed questions, leading ones, arguments in bad faith, etc. You're going to encounter them on future tests and in real life, and often the stakes are higher.

That question might have been shit at teaching about probability but it was a far more important lesson in disguise.
