That's an excellent example to show why statistical NLP outperforms discrete parsing using logical rules. That A1 and A2 means the same is something that is clear to us from the context. This is something a continuous vector space model can capture and a discrete rules based model cannot.
Q: "Do you mind if I sit here?"
A1: "Not at all!"
A2: "Sure!"
Both are valid answers and mean the same thing, the person asking is welcome to sit there. This has always amused me.
