Hime still has to ask her adviser if she can answer the question in the first place.

I'm sure she has the authority to answer vague questions with vague responses and that's exactly what she did. She isn't required to know the content 100% before answering. She saw what looked familiar, potentially requested if it was okay to respond, and then followed through accordingly. I really doubt she ran to her supervisor and said NEO TOKYO??? ARE WE GETTING NEO TOKYO??? and then was told NO WE'RE GETTING NEO CITY!!! and then she neglected to note the difference, shrugged, and answered anyway.
