I that true? When I ask "how many letters b in the word blueberry?", I get the response: "2 — in blueberry, the letter b appears twice (positions 1 and 5)."
Do I get the correct results because I happen to ask the question in a particular way? Or is there a distribution of answers and I happen to get the correct one? Or did they fix it? Or is the reporting misleading?
