I believe that I commented aloud that I answered “yes” to both of those (via Gupta and Bachmann) and wondered if anyone else did;  no one else did.  Someone noted that the number of “yes” responses when X = Tarski was to be expected, but expressed surprise at the number when X = Scholz.  The lady said that she had anticipated that.
