    The answer “there is no correct answer” is correct, but the answer isn’t 0%. It’s a paradox. There isn’t a solution, which isn’t the same thing as saying there’s a 0% chance of getting the right solution (when that is one of the choices).

      Essentially there’s a difference between “0% of answers will be correct (because none can be)” and “the listed 0%-option self-invalidates if selected”. The problem is the interaction between answers that shouldn’t be there in normal tests, which changes the values after selection.

      Therefore, the only winning move is not to play.
