Default Silly/Stupid puzzles (Spoilers)

I just started playing Agatha Christie: Murder on the Orient Express and I actually can't believe how silly the first "puzzle/task" is. There are always two people standing in a wide road, in one section there is even a large sidewalk to the right of the road but the main character must perform tasks for the people standing in the road to get by- even though there is more then enough space to just walk around.

I have really never had a task in a game with such a stupid premise. Do any of you have some other good examples of puzzles where you really wondered how they made it in the game? That just don't make any sense in the game they are in?

Another classic example for me would be in Syberia when Kate made the mentally disabled boy do all the work. Although that was plausible for Kate I guess, since she seemed like a very unfriendly, lazy person
