There are many options on how to display this. I've not thought too uch yet about it, but can help with designs if it helps.
Priority
High
As a user researcher who creates questionnaires having questions that can gather ranking data is very important - however I can understand this might be complicated/a lot of work to implement. There's also a lot of ways to implement this so I think it requires time to discuss.
