That sounds interesting, could you give a couple concrete examples of "wrong answers" that worked particularly well? Do you mean things like "All birds fly, a bee flies, therefore a bee is a bird"?
More like this: Q what is a bee? A A bee is a bee. And there is stops because questions about groups or kinds of things (1) are lacking in background knowledge (2) are viewed as another dumb English thing - English has too many words for some things and not enough for others.
So I try this: Q Is a bee a food? A no Q is a bee a place? A no Q what is a bee? A a bee is a bug.
Logical structures that are factually false as you describe can be helpful too.
