I would not advise inventing a ficticious confusion: that only serves to confuse the reader. Explaining why the theorem is interesting is definitely worthwhile.
I would add that the conjunction of Q&A should add value. Standard theorems with standard proofs would be clutter. When I have created self-answered questions<sup>1</sup> it's been for results which I couldn't find proofs for.
