So... the main thing I want to convey over and above "exercise" is that rather than there being a straightforward task-to-solve, you're supposed to ponder the statement and say, "What do I think of this?"
A word other than "koan" which conveys this intent-to-ponder would indeed be appreciated.
Consider adding "straightforward" exercises for the lesser mortals, and mark the harder ones, (koans?) with stars, like the standard textbooks do.
