You deeply overestimate people.
The models are like a kindergartner. No, worse than that, a whole classroom of kindergartners.
The teacher holds up a picture and says, "and how many legs does the dog have?" and they all shout "FOUR!!" because they are so excited they know the answer. Not a single one will think to look carefully at the picture.

It's hilarious how off you are.
You have never seen the video of the gorilla in the background?

That's a specific example that when you draw a human's attention to something (eg: count the number of ball passes in this video), they hyper-fixate on that, to the exclusion of other things, so it seems like it makes the opposite point that I think you're trying to?

Exactly this. Humans are primed for novelty and being quizzed about things.
The context is that you wouldn’t ask a person that unless there was a chance the answer is not 4.
