Idea: Allow respondent to priority rank questions such as Library Evaluation

Hi, writing surveys are tough and often thankless work. So, firstly, thanks for putting together such an amazing survey! The JS and CSS surveys are interesting and important.

Since I'm an unknown to many of you and not involved in your respective communities, hopefully you'll go easy on me if my suggestion is completely out of place. I read through the other open issues, but didn't see anything that captured the following idea.

A stacked list would likely allow for a more accurate expression of the respondent's priorities. The current UI introduces bias by presenting a tournament bracket style UI element. For example, how would a respondent indicate that their top priorities are user experience, documentation, inclusivity?

Tournament brackets also has the implication of a victor, head-to-head competition, and confrontation. In a passionate space such as front-end, this implication moves the narrative further away from inclusivity.

Anyways, nice to meet y'all,
Kind regards

Start by reviewing the existing tournament-bracket question UI and the survey YAML configuration described by the repository. Compare the current interaction with a stacked priority-ranking flow, then use the issue's examples—user experience, documentation, and inclusivity—to define what completion should look like. The comment thread may clarify whether this direction has been accepted.
