Your answer reminds me of a story my dad likes to tell from his days at Law School. He went into a particular test not having read all the cases he should have (he readily admits that part) and of course one of the big questions was to discuss how one of those cases relates to some subject. Knowing he couldn't leave it blank, he replied as best he could. His answer was simply: 'Some say yes and some say no and I tend to agree with them.'

He got credit, but only because the grader laughed at reading it.
