In general, the quiz is supposed to test and educate recruits about Gentoo development practices. But if all parts of a question are asked in questions like that(where it's obvious that 'no' isn't a valid answer) it's just going to result in more googling rather than thinking hard and having knowledge about how and why it's done. I think the original wording is fine because the recruit will have to think hard about what else is needed and consult documentation without knowing exactly what he is looking for. If needed the mentor can help out with points like that, but if at all possible it should be initially answered by the recruit. So please, let's not make the quiz into a set of yes/no questions(an exaggeration I know, but still the same effect).
