Why do the employees bother asking him questions that they already know the answer to in the pit of their stomachs?

I hate to think so many in the field of tech could be so naive of the world around them.

The same reason lawyers ask questions they know the answers to.

They aren't. When the answers are unsatisfying, as we know they will be, questions like this can be a precursor to convincing your coworkers to unionize.
