You don't get it because you're Asmodeans.  You don't understand the world you're trying to fake.  People who aren't tortured for asking wrong questions will ask things like that.  Somebody needed to be clever at him or Keltham would notice nobody was allowed to be clever around him.  He comes from dath ilan, do you think nobody there dares ask a question like that?
