Hello there!
I agree with the experts that it is not worth arguing with the GMAT questions. They are extensively tested and of very high quality. The concepts are well researched and methodologically there is nothing to hold against them.
That being said, no one is perfect and the GMAT is not as iron-clad as it would like you to think it is. Some questions have serious flaws (they are supposed to be hard when there is a really simple way in) and I think in my whole life I have seen maybe one or two that after serious reflection I could not bring myself to agree with, mostly due to sloppiness on the testmakers' parts (and it is a reflection of how un-sloppy they are that there are only one or two such incidents).
