QF = "Quiz Factor" = being alerted to the fact that if the play were automatic it never would have been posed as a question.

OtB (Over the Board), some players wouldn't consider the slot at all. Others would consider it but dismiss it quickly. But when you post it (twice), then one should give it quite a bit of consideration, in the least. In the Robertie case it's pretty compelling that slotting is right (because why would Robertie show a problem that every novice would get right)? In your problem, though, it could go either way. QF might in fact be double-psychology -- Robertie's position says slotting is right so why is it wrong in this similar situation?

QF is why some quiz responders look like geniuses until a bot is analyzing their matches and posting an error rate.
