MODERATORS
OCs point was that if the first person hadn't made up their mind yet, that would also cause them to say "i don't know", but the two following logicians seem to assume that the first person said "i don't know" because they wanted it but didn't know if the other two did
It's a false dichotomy and faulty logic if you look too closely
But it's a pretty funny joke
Logicians is the keyword here… There are only 2 possible answers: yes (true) or no (false)
In logic there is no other option
