In other words, the hint is supposed to be extremely obscure so that you can just see how close you may have gotten once the actual challenge comes out. I doubt anyone has ever gotten any real, even minuscule advantage.
That's exactly what it is. Think about every game hint we've ever gotten, would knowing any of them in advance give you any advantage at all? Knowing that there's going to be a pyramid to climb, or a ball or tube game doesn't really give you an advantage at all until you know the specifics of the game rules.
