Probably yes, but the point is that if you've seen similar problems before, the fact that they are counterintuitive trick questions is part of your pattern-match, and so you jump to a problem-solving strategy that manipulates the data you're provided in a way that's accurate rather than one that's not.

It's the same way you build expertise in any domain: proceed with your initial hypothesis, but then once experience proves you wrong, build a new, more accurate mental model. That new model will give right answers in a greater percentage of cases, but inevitably it's wrong too, and so you repeat the process.
