In most such cases, I say something like "I know it seems obvious, but the rule requires me to offer you the option of ...... or .........". In this or a similar case that the general populace won't understand, I would absolutely do it, because it is the best "game management" tool available, where everyone can understand the (otherwise confusing) result.
