[Lab3] Part 4: able to receive messages without setting the option

In my first version of the script, I simply set `sock.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_REUSEADDR, 1)' and I can see messages printed on the screen already. It was the feedback from the quiz and the scoring system that made me realize I was supposed to set other options. But why was I able to receive messages without setting the "correct" option in the first place?
