Athena was definitely goddess of war AND wisdom, so there was a perfectly decent question in there somewhere, if they had got their facts straight. Facts about made up things that didn't really exist, but facts nonetheless.

For heaven's sake, wtf? Why do people here (you're not the only one) think the worst of someone offering a sincere compliment and suggestion?
I meant exactly what I said; it was impressive that you knew that and it would be a good idea to correct them.

I was joking
