Speaking as a wordsmith, I vote against “Factual Questions.” I prefer the OP’s original title, “GQ with Factual Answers,” because the phrase “Factual Questions” is somewhat…contra-factual, shall we say.

A “factual questions” is a question pertaining to matters of fact, rather than, say, matters of opinion.

This one is my favorite so far. “Factual Questions” indeed!
