The first conjunct makes a contentious claim, and the second I predict will be thought false by everyone taking the survey. So if the intention is to investigate the contentious claim, bad luck!

By the time I got to the third question, reflection about the form of the questions began to set in, and I began to question my responses to the first two questions. It seemed to me the questions were poorly designed in a number of ways. I am not going to go into details about this, in order not to spoil others' taking the survey. But I do wonder if I am alone in my reaction. I started to take Stich’s survey.
