The inner bisections of the $ \angle ABC $ and $ \angle ACB $ angles of the $ ABC $ triangle are at $ I $. The $ BI $ parallel line that runs through the point $ A $ finds the $ CI $ line at the point $ D $. The $ CI $ parallel line for $ A $ finds the $ BI $ line at the point $ E $. The lines $ BD $ and $ CE $ are at the point $ F $. Show that $ F, A $, and $ I $ are collinear if and only if $ AB = AC. $

Let $k\geq4$ be an integer. Sunny and Ming play a game with strings. A string is a sequence that every element of it is an integer between $1$ and $k$, inclusive. At first, Sunny chooses two positive integers $N,L\geq2$ and write down $N$ strings, each having length $L$. Then Ming mark at most $\frac{N}{2}$ strings. Then Sunny chooses an unmarked string $s$ and calculate the biggest integer $n$ such that there exists another string satisfying its first $n$ element is the same as the first $n$ element of $s$. Then Sunny burn down all strings which first $n$ element if different from the first $n$ element of $s$, leaving only the ones which have the same first $n$ element of $s$. Finally, Ming chooses an integer $d$ between $1$ and $k$, inclusive, and remove all strings which $(n+1)$th element is $d$. Sunny's score would be the number of strings left. Find the maximum score that Sunny can guarantee to get.
