I'm curious about why knowing one of the two longest rivers in the US is a necessary question...

I can see how it might reflect one's interest in the US, knowing something like that, but other than students who need to know it for schoolwork, local DNR or those river's operators et al., that's largely a Jeopardy Daily Double question for most US folk, even if they do know it.
