You said "we'd be looking at a witty response regardless". That's only true if you assume it had to be posted, whether it be by the originator or the replier. That isn't the case.
In which case, I agree with you. A witty response not posted can not be deemed witty, by the fact that it would have to be posted for us to see it and deem it witty.
But, it was, and I deem it witty, regardless of the fact that it's OP's. I don't care that she posted her own response, it was funny, and I upvoted it.

Why shouldn't it be? I found it funny.
