Do you prefer quantity or quality? (Not of anything in particular. Just use the first thing that came to your mind when you read this.)
the first thing that comes to my mind, on that question, is to assess whether or not i am currently in the mood to answer the unanswerable. but actually, because you phrased it in a relatively long way, my first thought during the reading of the question and before i'd finished it, was, "incoming unanswerable, must continue reading to see if the parentheses changes the question, standby for assessing whether or not to answer the unanswerable" and then as soon as i was done reading the question my thought was "confirmed unanswerable question, proceed to assess current appropriateness of attempting to answer unanswerable." i hope that helps
