Lol yes, that was going to be the one downside I was going to mention. I wasn't sure if it was just unique to my situation, but I found it would lead me down a logical path. It would ask me if I had tried various solutions.

Eventually, I would hit a point where it wouldn't know where to go any further, and it would land on "here's some things you can do" but those options would be things I was actively trying and failing with.

So that was fun. In a way, it was great at confirming that I had thought of all the logical options.
