Checking for all the usual suspect doesn't take time as this is done automatically. If the answer does come almost instantly, you can decide to rely on your intuition.
But what is intuition? The brain recognizes a pattern, you don’t see? This is certain to fail in cases like this. This is a calculated, constructed example, which doesn't lend itself to intuition.
It is my experience anyway, if I don’t see the pattern in this types of test, I likely get it wrong.
