I'm not so certain that we shouldn't take time into account, because then the questions should all be related to each person's genome, which does not change over the course of your lifetime (let's ignore something like gene therapy).
But I agree that the current crop of questions assume perfect instantaneous knowledge of the state of the world (does my country have iridium mines? Does my country export cocoa?), which means that someone's id would constantly be changing, even though it might be unique at any moment in time.
It doesn't necessarily force all questions to be related to the genome. For example, adjusting the second question to reference the location you were born instead of the location you live would maintain immutability without being related to your genome.
To solve this problem, I think the only solution is neural network.
But to build this network you have to question a lot of people.
It seems to be a debate.
Example amongst others: issues #5, #29, #39, #8, #6 are debating or might encourage the debate about whether answers should or should not depend on time.
To me, it seems the intent of the owner was to give an immutable unique id to someone answering the questions. I think it makes sense. Can someone (@MarkDunne maybe?) confirm on deny this thought?
