    "Which label was unclear?",

  ],
  "question_notes": [
    "An unclear legend label identifies a series or category that readers cannot interpret confidently. Clarify the measured variable and actual category meaning.",
    "The color-category connection reveals whether readers can identify series through the legend and labels. Provide accurate additional identifiers where appropriate, without treating color differentiation alone as proof of accessible or correct interpretation.",
    "A missing explanation identifies the contextual link readers need between legend entries and the visual marks. Use accurate labels and additional identifiers rather than relying on color alone."

  "answer_guidance": [
    {
      "question": 1,
      "format": "Optional short text",
      "reason": "Retain the specific point or condition described; avoid replacing it with an unexplained rating."
    },
    {
      "question": 2,
      "format": "Optional written explanation",
      "reason": "Keep context that distinguishes different experiences. Do not rely on color alone."
    },
    {
      "question": 3,
      "format": "Optional improvement suggestion",
      "reason": "Keep the suggested change separate from whether it has been tested. Add direct labels and accessible distinctions."

  "respondent_instruction": "If nothing was unclear or difficult, say so. Skip questions about steps you did not experience; use not applicable where appropriate.",
  "note": "Examples to adapt. Not a validated instrument."
