Yes, the question is ambiguous. If I spot an ambiguity, I usually try to give all possible interpretations in my answers, but I missed this one! Thank you. In some cases, there are so many ways of interpreting the question or the question is so obscure that I cannot provide any answer. I wish more people would be careful to present their questions unambiguously and concisely.
