Am I missing something here?
Oh, DEAR, dear, dear Bing! I am losing faith in "This or That" once again! Today's (Thurs., Oct. 07, 2021) question is:
"Which literary classic is longer?"
MY first question to this is: "Longer" HOW? In page length? By publishing date? "Longer" HOW?
Right off the bat, the choice was between "A Tale of Two Cities" and "Treasure Island." Can you guess which one I CHOSE after looking up the answer through YOUR very own search engine? No need to worry! I took screenshots. *(Please, see attachments below.) But, out of curiosity, when asking "which is longer," the idea WAS about page length, correct?
So, if "A Tale of Two Cities" has a total of 112 pages and "Treasure Island" has 292 pages, HOW did I get the answer wrong? Have I misunderstood the phrase of the question? Please advise.
- Sorry Rae_Rae,

Here try this one
(Ironically) The third time IS the charm!
This time, the choice is between "The Three Musketeers" and "The Great Gatsby."
For the record, "this" isn't about "points. "This" is about the exactitude of answer(s). I SINCERELY believe NO ONE likes having their ACCURATE response(s) labeled as wrong.
- Don't I feel sheepish! Thank you (for the heads-up)!
Adding two more conflicting choices of today's "This or That." Please note maybe the choices(?) should be more straightforward- at least when it comes to the "Literary Classics"- regarding issue/ year/ AUTHOR/ etc.?
Also, I would like to add that I use the BING SEARCH to answer BING'S "This or That" question.
