Explanation
The contestant’s suggestion is rather childish; you also have the word naively as a clue. Facile matches well, and has the sense of “superficial; so simple it’s actually stupid.” Note that convoluted often describes an unconvincing argument, but a complicated one — this choice does not match the clue “naively.”
