So far, shokwave clearly gets it. Compare to any other sophisticated question asked in a language you aren't familiar with. Here, you need to be sufficiently comfortable with counterfactuals, for the number of its usages in a problem statement not to act as a pattern for ridiculousness.
I don't think that.
I don't see how "subjective" helps here. It's not clear what sense of "influence" you intend.
I fully agree. Which is why I find it surprising that you did not attempt to answer the question.
