The ant is doing an extraordinary effort to run on all of its tiptoes so it wouldn't disturb anyone, and you come claiming it's not an ant just because it's polite?

Maybe it wanted to tiptoe around this specific pedant and failed.

I don't think it's pedantry to question why an ant, with an exoskeleton, should be moisturizing.
