No. I think, as I said before, a ban is too harsh. The idea is basicaly to avoid just a flurry of wild shooting. But I agree that sometimes a query will have to be in the form of a question.

So its not a hard and fast rule yet, we are still in the nascent stage. Counting it as two queries is probably a fairer and more practical option.

am i vijay merchant? for the following reason?

Like when Marathi novelist N.S. Phadke happened to meet Vijay Merchant around the time Kamalatai Phadke was expecting. Phadke reportedly said to Merchant, "During the coming Kanpur test if I get a don and you score a double century, I’II name him Vijay."

The rest was naming history: The Phadke household got a son, Vijay Merchant did score a double century, and Kamalatai’s son did get named Vijay.
