  Well in this case the instructions specifically say to avoid those kinds of questions.

  Also maybe a prompt to this note when you fall foul of this rule would be better than a “I don’t know” amoji.

    If it doesn’t know, you should get another question.

    That’s already the behavior. Those don’t count as tries.
