As someone said below, it's only open for debate if you want to be pedantic. The Dr. Sheldon Cooper's among us may debate it, but it's pretty obvious what the question was looking for. There is even an illustration showing the cut, which would take an identical amount of time.

The question says "board" while the illustration shows more of a rod. I deduce the question to be at least one of inconsistent or incomplete.
