There is always value in truthful statements. You are right that 91 is not the smallest number as was implied by the parent. -91 is. After all it was the parent who brought in the negative integers into the mix.

As long as we're not talking about nonzero value.

I think GP made a worthwhile point, but in general the universe is full of uninteresting truths. Like take two large, distinct numbers, assert that they are unequal. Is that specific truth valuable?
