Got it. Of course, your mini-lecture about "not assuming good faith" wasn't condescending at all.
I spent a fair amount of time researching this urban legend earlier today. I wasn't "assuming" anything.

Fair that it was abrupt of me to put it that way.
But to make clear what I was saying, I really should have responded to the parent, who says: "It's extremely hard to believe that even a malicious scientist could convince himself that a horse cannot be ridden into town."
My point being that a malicious test-giver could certainly deny that as a valid answer. I don't know that I believe that anecdote happened, but it is assuming good faith to think that it couldn't happen because no one would ever reject "horse" as an answer.
In general, I think asking for clarification is better than being condescending.
