This problem, in depth of thought of its creator, reminds me an old children's joke:

There's something green hanging on the fence and squeaking. What is it?
- It's a herring.

And why is it hanging on the fence?
- Uh, they hung it there.

And why is it squeaking?
- So that no one would guess.

The problem in the post is at the same level of pedagogy.

God save us from such problem creators.
