You are (obviously!) correct. Thanks for spoilering your answer.

That's a great question. I didn't realise Google Lens would be so helpful. I think for challenges I will add something to gently discourage its use for the moment as I clearly am unable to find any objects that are obscure enough to remain unsolved for more than a few minutes.

I'm sure if people start submitting handmade items used by their grandmothers they might even beat Google Lens.
