  Well, the "Philosophy behind Parrot" question (which is a very good question) for one. That's the biggest. The "It's really X, but you probably are thinking of Y" won't work there--the gap between X and Y is rather large. Also potentially counterproductive, as Y really doesn't answer the question and, worse yet, will lead people to think that it does answer the question.
