Its like showing someone a color and asking how many letters it has. 4... 3? blau, blue, azul, blu The color holds the meaning and the words all map back.

In the model the individual letters hold little meaning. Words are composed of letters but simply because we need some sort of organized structure for communication that helps represents meaning and intent. Just like our color blue/blau/azul/blu.

Not faulting them for asking the question but I agree that the results do not undermine the capability of the technology. In fact it just helps highlight the constraints and need for education.
