The first wording assumes a positive outcome and combines clarity with ease. The revised prompt asks about the concrete situation; respondents may report no difficulty.
A worked interpretation example
Illustrative scenario. These are not customer results.
Help controls resemble payment controls.
Label assistance actions distinctly.
After testing this change—Label assistance actions distinctly.—ask people who encountered the changed arrangement whether this original issue still occurred or did not occur: “Help controls resemble payment controls.” Invite a concrete explanation, including none or not applicable. Compare participant context and sample differences; a before-and-after survey alone does not establish causation.
From question to next step

Ask after an adult respondent has encountered this specific situation. For draft-copy testing, show the actual material first; accept none or not applicable when the issue did not occur.
