That is not true. 2+2 is a problem with a "simple, easy,
obvious" answer that is not "completely, totally,
horrifically wrong." Some people do suggest "answer(s) that
(are) simple, easy, obvious... and completely, totally,
horrifically wrong" for some complex problems that do indeed
require complicated, hard, and not at all obvious answers.
But some problems do have "simple, easy, obvious" answers,
that you might not like.
