    Dude. The 4th sentence of the page you linked says it doesn’t apply to this type of open ended question.

    The only possible answer to this (admittedly silly) headline is, “it depends what you mean by die”. An answer yes or no could easily be rebutted.

      The adage does not apply to questions that are more open-ended than strict yes–no questions.

      But this is a strict yes-no question

        Did you not bother to read the 3rd and 4th sentence of my comment?

        The question is open ended. It’s subjective, dependent on the definition of “die”. It’s not answerable with merely yes or no.
