Yeah, some of us (phd) physicists do have these problems.
More interestingly, some of the problems on places like hackerrank, which are expressed as math problems have fundamental problems in that the answers they posit as being correct are not. I dealt with one such failure, where one could write down an closed form solution for a problem in complex analysis that the author mistakenly assumed was a number theory problem. They did not comprehend that their answer was nonsensical.
