In my experience, the english “and” can also be interpreted as separating two statements that should be evaluated (and given credit for being right/wrong) separately. Under that interpretation, someone who says “A and B” where A is true and B is false is considered half-right, which is better than just saying “B” and being entirely wrong.
Though, looking back at the original question, it doesn’t appear to use the word “and”, so problems with that word specifically aren’t very relevant to this article.
