This seems like one of those divisive topics where if the person refuses to answer the question, for any reason whatever, they've failed, significantly so.
It's like non-trolls don't make it to the future... Like, there's no place for anyone who fails to follow up with something like:
(rejects the question on its face): But what about an intermixed group of guys and one girl wearing argyle garments of various types?
I mean, as a very real, practical problem: either the question absolutely fails or absolutely succeeds at its purpose, and its purpose is determing whether or not the asked absolutely fails or absolutely succeeds at something — but what? The question clearly has lost its value at its first iteration, and really only serves to entertain programmer-types.
For instance, if I were to ask anyone two generations back, they would clearly lose all patience. And the further I take this line of questioning back in history, the fewer the number of folk becomes for whom it is relevant (all the way back to, say, Aristotle, who probably has exactly the classically wrong answer). But as we ask it, we clearly see it as a template question. It isn't informative in any practical sense, and it does not directly modulate our practical ethics.
It's like we've already begun the post-future nostalgia: "Oh, remember way back when racism was a thing?" — But, paradoxically enough... It is still a thing!
Like, tomorrow I'm going to have to politely grimace in response to at least one racist joke — of which 10 years ago it did not exist as a class of joke, but 40 years ago probably would've incited a minor riot (just given its phonetic appearance).
