Please lower the speech requirements for talking to the Man in the Moon Man Mask

During the quest "Forbidden Secrets of the Undisputed Claim"

1) First Playthrough I took Scientist as my background and Witty as one of my starting traits. I was easily able to convince him to talk to me and get the tape.

2) Second Playthough:  Lawbringer, without WItty but with the perks Negotiator, Charlatan, Tall Tale Teller, Keen Observer, Space Ranger and the Sickly Flaw, he tells me "nice try" and that locks the quest.  I took every dialogue option offered and reloaded more than once with the same result.

This needs to be looked into and altered to allow more options to successfully update the quest.

Ok. I was just stuck at this quest. Ended up going back through a different save and still had the same problem. Went back again and tried different dialogue options with Amos and got him to give up more info. Pickpocket the recipe and turned it in. Got the next step of talking to moon man and still had this problem. 

Started the quest over again and did everything the same but instead of pickpocketing the recipe I bought it from what’s her face for $5k. Turned everything in and went to talk to moon man and an extra dialogue option was available about being there to talk to him. 

So to test this out I reloaded the other save where I couldn’t progress the quest and went back to the lady at the bar I had previously pickpocketed from and it let me pay her the $5k still. Went back to the moon man and it let me progress the quest! 

So at least in my case the bug is tied to pickpocketing the drink recipe. By paying the $5k I am now able to progress further.
