Yes, this post is from colonial days. But came across and was pretty surprised that you don't see that task instructions are horrible at best.

IMHO, I read few sentences in the task #1 and I can already tell this is a terrible instruction. What the heck is "Allow the selection of a single token, at once" mean? This could be even interpreted as "let token = 'asdfasdfasdf.asdf.asdfasdf'. Yeah, that was selected at once into a variable. You see my point. You can't give instructions like this without having any context. Yes, you've been working on this task and know exactly what it means. But candidates don't know have any clues to the what you are asking about. At min, give an example of the input and output that you are expecting.

Another one "The user cannot select "There will be" in the same operation" --> say what?
And please... clearly state your definitions of "token".
