The night crew must be on break.
I'm not much on probability, but I once met Poor Bob, Hillbilly.
It was a life-changer.

I just need a ball park idea. Is this shit going to work or not? Toss in the factor of safety and move forward.

That's interesting.
If the correct answer is 25%, then there are two possible choices (A or D) - which gives you 50% chance of picking the correct answer. Thus, 25% can't be the correct answer.
If 50% or 60% are the right answers, then there is only a 25% chance of picking them. So those don't work either.
Therefore, the solution must be either uniquely A or uniquely D, but not A OR D.
And I didn't click the link to read the reddit discussion.

Analog or digital?
But I digress.
The question has no correct answer because it has *no* answer at all; thus, any answer is both correct and incorrect. It's Schrodinger's question.
When in doubt, add more mass.
