Thanks for following up, Benjamin. For errors in single answer questions, I take the perspective that 'right is right'. If they were told to bubble only one, but they bubbled multiple, it is wrong. So I am not too worried about this. I don't even think that I would want to know which ones they bubbled, just that there was a bubbling error. I'd certainly want to be able to turn off any guessing algorithm if you were to develop one.
I think the number grid question type would also be useful for surveys. It's rather common to have some sort of number question on a survey in development economics, for example.
