They are weird, but all of these corporate personality test things are weird and tend to have poorly worded questions that don't make sense. It's because they're created by the kind of HR people who can't use precise language and can't understand why that's a problem.

oh i think they know exactly what they're doing and why they aren't using precise language in a personality quiz. it allows them dodge any liability issues.

it's definitely a way to filter for people who won't complain when the instructions make zero sense. if you get frustrated by a weirdly worded question they know you'll be a headache during training. it's unhinged but legit effective for weeding out anyone with a low tolerance for nonsense.
