I think this very well could be an S vs N preference thing. Maybe it's a bit of a language barrier? In this scenario it's pretty clear "It is what I want to know, but you're now answering my question" vs "Just tell me what I want to know, how I asked is less important"?
I hate getting the "There's one missing"-reply because more often than not it ends up with me having to count the forks myself to see how many forks there really are compared to the number of people and then fix that error.
