A good question, as it breaks the rules by blatantly proposing a solution (i.e. eat some cornflakes and quit pondering the question) right after raising a good point (some problems cannot afford to wait very long for solutions).
It only breaks the rules of the game after identifying this problem as one for which holding off on proposing solutions was not a worthwhile endeavor. Plus, the fairly whimsical nature of the solution was probably amusing to some, which may account for some of the upvotes; I know I smiled when I read it.
