You're not exactly discovering the New World here, you know. Plenty of people have discussed such things before.

That question isn't a new one, the consensus is there really wasn't much of chance for Lelouch to record that (assuming it matters in this wacky, fictional show to begin with...even the creators admit that there are many things in Code Geass that only work in anime).

I remember the subject was debated back when the show was airing and, at most, you can argue that Schneizel is actually so (deceptively) simpleminded that when you tear away his mask, so to speak, Lelouch could read his personality (lack of ambition and all that jazz) like a book, but even that is a stretch.

It's not a matter of not making sense, as such, as much as it is completely unrealistic and impossible to replicate in the real world. Episode 8 of R2 spells that out.
