I assume the mashgiach will be answering these questions, so we can 
trust him to tell the truth.  The problems aren't what he knows but what 
he doesn't know, the things they get away with when he's not looking. 
The presumption is that if an owner wants to cheat no mashgiach will be 
able to prevent him; the questions are designed to see whether these 
owners are the kind of people who are likely to cheat.
