re: If you get pulled over, do you answer seemingly innocuous questions?

yeah what they can use a probably cause seems pretty flimsy. One of my buddies got pulled over and the cop questioned him and his wife separately. He told the cop they went to wal mart and his wife said wal mart and some other BS. The cop tried to use their "conflicting" stories as probable cause to search their vehicle. I know I probably don't have the story 100% correct but it was along those lines.

I’ve never been asked where I was coming from but I’m always chatty and cheerful with the cops and I’ve received more warnings than tickets. Of course, these are just simple traffic stops

I haven't been pulled over in 20 years... my go to is to be friendly, remain calm, and do what they ask... works well... slip a joke or two in there, and they're usually cool as a cucumber.... never allow them to view you as a threat, and you won't have any problems

Argue with cops in court; not on the side of the road.

No reason to give them help in court, on the side of the road.

Perfect opportunity to use the word ironically, and you misspelled it.

That's fine. Rights are like any other muscle. Exercise them, or lose them.
