When presented with a problem like the 'if 3 is half of 5' one,
how many dive right in and try to solve something, and how many
start by checking for inconsistencies?  Solving problems that
are 'inconsistent' sounds like it goes in the same pile as working
with insufficient data.  (problems with problems :-)
