Hi, I have some feedback on the survey. I appreciate the effort to use
multi-choice answers this year, but restricting the number of choices (at
most 4 choices, at most 3 choices), is not really helpful. Firstly, it's
annoying–we may genuinely think more than just 3 or 4 options are relevant
for the answer, and having to de-select some options to proceed is a
jarring experience. And secondly, it decreases the amount of useful
information that you, the survey conductors, are getting, with no real
benefit or statistical basis. If you allow unlimited choices, you can still
easily add up all the choices and rank by the ones that got the most votes.

Regards,

Yawar
