@TobiStein Mr. Stein, amazing appeal to authority (teacher) followed by a complete sidestepping of my well-ordered argument only to engage in a straw man. You're evidently the one "stunlocked."

I am left wondering if your overt and unhelpful defense of 7Sage has something to do with the company being owned by The Sage Group PLC (SGE.L) listed on the London stock exchange; whose primary shareholders are institutions, the largest of which being BlackRock, Inc. I'm at a loss for another explanation as to why a presumably busy man with a teaching career would either spend time on this message board or take the effort to make such water-muddying comments. Bye and good riddance.

Again, Question 4's alleged "winner" according to 7Sage is an error on their part:

As stated in the answers of all four of the other questions on the quiz, the "winner" is defined as (1.) which one of the two things has the (2.) quality or characteristic being compared—it's the outcome of unifying Instruction 1. And Instruction 2. of the Quiz Instructions.  Question 4 explicitly states that the (2.) quality or characteristic of "more often" is not possessed by its erroneously alleged "winner" when it states, "No statistical evidence is provided to show that humans act selfishly more often ..."  Therefore, 7Sage's "Answer" that claims "humans act selfishly [more often]" is simply wrong in that Question 4 explicitly states that the (1.) "thing" (humans act selfishly) doesn't possess the quality or characteristic of "more often." 

The fact that 7Sage gives an incoherent explanation that contradicts the other four questions' "winner" answer explanations on the quiz doesn't make their provided answer to Question 4 any more correct or defensible.

@TobiStein Your response is non sequitur and unhelpful; it appears to be an overly verbose rephrasing of the similarly irrational answer provided by 7Sage for Question 4.

As stated in the answers of all four of the other questions on the quiz, the "winner" is defined as (1.) which one of the two things has the (2.) quality or characteristic being compared—it's the outcome of unifying Instruction 1.

The Answer for Question 4 regarding the "winner" is objectively incorrect:

If the quality being compared occurs more often, then the "winner" would either be neither quality, or possibly the quality of humans acting unselfishly. The example explicitly states there is "No statistical evidence," for humans acting selfishly to be the "winner," therefore it is fundamentally not reasonable or cogent to declare it as such.
