I disagree a little on the results to be meaningless just because the tone or phrasing is positive, particularly with the topic of AI because it is far too easy to list all the negatives associated with AI, and doing that doesn't move the conversation forward. Structuring that question in this ranking way allows for a better conversation on how to use AI in whatever area comes out as the best or one of the better fitting spots for AI in Fedora based on how people ranked them. We want to focus on the potential benefits (or positives) that we could leverage from AI while understanding the preferences of our community with this initial survey. But, having said that, I take your points :) That's good feedback to have for any other surveys we will send on how we structure questions and answering.
