It's a good answer. Honest, reasonable; why would he have any reason to question it? But question it he does- it's just a little too perfect for a skeleton like Sans, who deals in plenty of secrets.
Idly he wonders if this knowledge of his has to deal with whoever messed with his magic.
"And here I thought you spent all of that time working on your comedy routine."
There's no need to push, none at all. Even if Sans has stopped trying to actively get 4, clearly he's just playing the waiting game. He can do that too.
"Since you like learning so much, did you ever pursue any academics in school? Or did you choose a different path?"
This question is less idle chitchat and more curiosity. He never went to school, having been just a humble ghost on a snail farm. The story of Alphys building him was very convenient to use to hide his lack of schooling, but it never took away his wonder at what going to school was like. From the times he had asked Alphys, it had always sound very hard. And from his brief stint in Hogwarts, he was inclined to agree.
