1. None are intended to involve trick questions of international law.

   The different countries were used to justify why someone would definitely make a copy rather than just use the original.

2. None are intended to involve trick questions of fair use.

   Educational settings are most familiar to the target audience, who often tend to over-apply the fair use argument.

3. None are specific enough that there is one certain answer.

   I wanted you to learn to identify issues and to know when you may need to do additional research or to seek legal counsel to clarify and resolve those issues.
