I had a teacher who would give two points for each correct answer out of, say, 47 questions. So the highest score you could get was 94%. This was for a math test.
Awful teacher even if they had questions no one would know, cause maybe they had a prodigy in their class or maybe someone that studied that subject to death, that’s a horrible outcome for the kid who got all questions correct.
I guess you could go Farnsworth route and say penmanship counts. (Futurama joke). Though at a certain age range that’s not really applicable I guess it depends the grade level for my annoyance at that teacher I’ll probably forget it in a moment anyways. Still awful teacher if they got all questions correct, and wasn’t a trick one in there.
Edit forgot to add also if the work showed all steps of logic (usually math but sure you get what I mean). No one learning should be denied a perfect score if they learned it is all.
The sad thing is, jokes aside for some teachers is actually is accurate.

Hannah works as a third-grade teacher and refuses to give 100% on any assignment to any of her students because “only Jesus was perfect.”

My French teacher told me this is how grades work in France for real.
I had a teacher that refused to give 100% on any tests because he only left room for two digits when he drew up his marking list. True story.

But… 47/47 is 100%…
You figured it out! You win math! 😀

I know you meant that a joke, but upon further research, I found out it’s actually true.

You both get up votes for your properly referenced sources.
You were both eerily close to correct though.
Probably.
