Really strange: 83 lichess players did't see scholar's mate in one move.

First of all, excuse me for my poor english abilities.
I was a little bit bored, and I decided to go to the analysis board to see who is the highest rated player on lichess to fall victim of the scholar's mate (using the opening explorer). But instead I found a strange surprise. I put the moves: 1.e4 e5 2.Qh5 Nc6 3. Bc4 Nf6?? and then nobody of the 83 white players that reached this position played the obvious 4. Qxf7#. Really strange, since I think that a player that plays this opening wants to deliver a scholar's mate.
I think games that end in 4 moves must not make it into the opening explorer

So you can only see the ones that failed, and not the thousands that no doubt have succeeded

P.S. Your English is fine
Thank you jimj12. Your comment seems to explain this "strange" fact.
#1 Sorry but I couldn't understand a word of that
