Now I have to think of this Reddit thread that made me react pretty similarly: https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/s/jWlSqhJsOH

The OP there also has a pretty bad riddle (due to a grammatical error that completely changes the meaning and makes the intended solution nonsensical, and a solution that many people wouldn’t even have heard of).

Exactly! I read that riddle and thought "a couple islands over the international date line" solely because of the last line, but still had no idea what the name of these islands thousands of miles away from me were named. Might as well make the riddle who their little brother is, and make the answer "Fairway Rock", if niche knowledge is your goal. Which, completely to GPT-o1's credit, it did solve in a single prompt when I asked!
