Vincent, I think the GM would say the following

Also it depends on what you mean by true. Tommi (he reads here, but I'm not sure if he posts) once described a (nifty) comparitive idea to me, of a group of people with sheets of paper in front of them and though description and talking, they all try and draw roughly the same thing on each page. That's a way of visualising what's going on with an SIS? If you'd take it that 'its true' is to have a high level of sameness to each page, then in outcome 9 there is an low level of sameness as the GM's page does not contain the item. Either round down the fraction and call it not true or a low level of truth. In outcome 10, they are presumably very similar sheets, but none of them contain a smelly chamberlain. So it's not true at all - not even a fraction.
I can't honestly answer for the others, at a moral level. It's like telling me a guy swings a punch at someone, then asking me if his rollex is fake...I either want to address the punch, or nothing as I don't think the rollex's fakeness matters in light of the situation. Even when the GM rolls with it - the GM might think the players are just making a suggestion (and decides to roll with what he thinks is a suggestion), the players aren't suggesting. They are going to do it no matter what he says. Wham.
