⚠️ Issues Identified:

1. Question Type Detection ❌ CRITICAL

   • Issue: "Unknown question type for question 227"
   • Root Cause: Question type detection logic not finding answer elements
   • Possible Reasons:
     • Elements not fully rendered yet
     • Question might be scrolled out of viewport
     • Detection timeout too short
     • Container elements not checked first

2. Question ID Detection ⚠️

   • Question ID detected (227) but type unknown
   • Need better waiting for question to fully render
