It was a question!
No it wasn’t. It may have been framed as one, but it was more of an insidious allegation disguised as a question.
It would be like asking me “When did you stop beating your wife?”

Oh...
I think I get it...
"You are an IDIOT!" won't pass because it is PERSONAL.
"Are you STILL an IDIOT?" is ok for it's a QUESTION?
