Am I missing something?

Seems you have 4 HC.

Under Chinese rules the usual interpretation is free placement. You should be able to place 4 stones in a row

“Stupid questions don’t exist, …”
In Germany, this usually is continued with “… only stupid answers.”
But I prefer this: “… only stupid people—namely those who don’t ask questions.”

Yeah, the OGS community is a lovable bunch.
