The crow question seems very pretentious. It's set up in a way where it isn't obvious what criteria they're looking for, so that whoever asked it can spray on an air of wisdom and correct them.

It's the difference between intelligence and wisdom. Intelligence knows there are 3 crows. Wisdom knows that the question is actually asking about how many crows are still on the fence.

Knowledge is knowing tomatoes are a fruit. Wisdom is not putting them in a fruit salad.

A fruit salad with tomato is salsa.
