:::*He could be curious on the candidates opinion of the current RFA process and how open the candidate is to reforms. There has been a lot of discussion about how admins are opposed to changes and he wants to know which side of the fence the candidate falls on.

#::As to how it is a "wrong answer", I had this question in my own recent RfA, and I answered that I would decline it (my rationale is well-explained in the answer). Hurricanefan indicated that my answer was exactly what they were looking for. It's not "wrong" per se, as it's left up to the candidate's judgment. But, for that reason, I do agree that they "stretched the notion of 'obvious'". As an aside, IMHO, it doesn't help at all to create a positive RfA environment if you're attacking certain questions as "ridiculous".
