    That’s why they did it in sets of three. They could just give every user a blank text box for every option, but doing it this way makes it far easier to analyze the data in bulk.

      yea, but that gives you less info

      this way, you can’t really differentiate from a feature that people want, but not as a priority, VS a feature that people don’t want ever

        And there’s no way to relate preference between features, at least in my case. I had one question that I entered “2x faster performance” as most want, and the next question was “2x slower performance,” but there was another crappy option in the same list that I also don’t want, so if I don’t pick “2x slower performance” as least want, what signal does that send?

        I hope it all comes out in the wash, but honestly, I would’ve preferred a big list of all of the features with 4 options:

        • really want
        • want
        • meh
        • don’t want

        I think I would’ve entered about even numbers of things for each category. They could even limit “really want” to top three or something.
