I guess how the question is phrased 'where do you feel like AI/ML has the best fit in Fedora' assumes the responder will choose where they feel it works best as top choice, and least-best (terrible English :) ) as last, so reviewers of the survey would likely assume 'oh the <something> option scored lowest, that means people really don't see AI/ML as suiting that use case so we shouldn't focus any energy on this option'.Like I said, it really is great feedback because the tone of the question, while deliberately trying to be positive because this is such a controversial topic in and of itself, didn't raise this issue of needing a 'doesn't fit at all' option when the survey questions were reviewed before going live, and that's something we can take forward for the contributors survey too for question structuring.The only reluctance I have on scrapping this survey and changing that question and then relaunching is that I don't want it to be spammy, because I'm sure a lot of folks have already completed the current one and there's still the contributor survey too to be launched, but if folks are having a terrible that with that question I'm particular, then I will and hope you give me another few mins of your day again to fill it back out :)Aoife Moloney

Indeed. This creates a skewed dataset because the questions you've
asked essentially prevent a set of responses from being captured. The
two choices people have are: pick the least worst option or just don't
participate in the survey. Neither of which are good things.
Continuing with a small comment:this looks like one of those Human Resources surveys where they only want to know if their performance is:. good. great. outstandingAnd as we know, it's actually none of thoseLuís
