They’ve probably heard way dumber questions from people who aren’t interns/entry level. I wouldn’t sweat it

No such thing as a dumb question. A wise man never fails to ask. How do you think they became wise?

A lot easier to trust and rely on someone who will ask “dumb” questions than someone who will act on “dumb” assumptions
