Well his example does break down since it is supposed to have a protocol, and the prover could fake it by showing him a fake waldo. To make it a ZKP, The person requesting the proof would need to know exactly what waldo looks like (possibly reconfiguring/redrawing him himself), but doesn't know where he is. He hands the prover the new picture, and he proves it by showing the cutout with the exact rendition of the new waldo. Repeat n times with new waldos to reduce the likelihood of getting a lucky guess. I'm not sure but I think this sounds closer.

The model of the WW problem assumes you know what Waldo looks like (but not where he is), so that part is taken care of.

Under the protocol I gave, you can’t cheat by using a fake Waldo, because each time there’s a fifty percent chance the prover will ask you to remove the screen, which would reveal you’re not using (only) the original page.

(Keep in mind you do the protocol many times with a new position in each one.)

I see, that makes more sense
