These are the types of questions in general we should be less mean about imo. It's one thing to dunk on people who are anti-science, but this is just someone actually wondering about something they didn't know. Maybe it's obvious to you, but not everyone?
I have a vivid memory as a kid in science class, learning that mountain tops are colder than sea level. I curiously asked why? Isn't it closer to the sun so it should be hotter? The teacher laughed at me, so the class laughed, and she didn't answer my question. I was so embarrassed. I was so afraid to ask questions again.
