maybe, maybe not. If it wasnt a scenario when IFR would apply, then you would not be correct.

In practice, I probably call IFR myself, that doesnt mean I dont recognize rules as they are written. So when I see a scenario written for training purposes where IFR doesnt apply, I wouldnt steadfastly maintain IFR DOES apply.. when it obviously doesnt.

You have invented for yourself an entire method of umpiring, and where the rules/scenario conflict with your method, you choose your method over the rules and declare a "none of the above, I'm right" answer.
