Ross

I think it could be either:

Which length description are you looking for?:

5

7

confuse

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'baffle' is the first definition.
(I know that baffle is a more specific form of the action confuse)

'perplex' is the second definition.
(I know that confuse is a is a more specific form of the action of perplex)

(Other definitions for confuse that I've seen before include "Puzzle" , "Perplex" , "Bewilder" , "Muddle, mix up" , "Disconcert, befuddle" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
