I didn't see this as a hostile student, I saw it as a hostile co-worker who is trying to accuse you of something you didn't do.
A junior dev may ask a lot of questions but that would be like, "Where is that documented? How do I read that? I don't understand what it's saying." A senior person might have already grokked a lot of it but didn't realize there was hidden context somewhere else, so when they say they couldn't find the documentation you show them and they go back to read it. A hostile student (someone who wants to be force-fed info instead of reading themselves) would pepper you with questions showing they didn't in good faith read any of the docs, but they wouldn't lie and say the docs weren't there. This is someone who thought that you were slacking off or wasting time and want to show that, and they'll keep at it until they can find something to stick. And if they can't, they'll make you have two mutually exclusive things to be true in order to satisfy them.
