I don't have a specific question to suggest, but I find it very helpful to think about and clearly write down three things about any question you intend to ask others for evaluation purposes:
1) SO WHAT - why am I asking this question? What am I trying to learn? How will I use the answer to make my decision?
2) what are some possible answers to this question? is there a "best"/"worst" answer - the answer I (don't) want to hear? This can be objective or subjective, but you have to have a strong opinion.
3) two good follow-up questions, especially if the answer is neither extremely good nor bad.
I find that rubber duck thinking through this cuts out a lot of questions that seem superficially okay but actually give you no useful criteria to make a decision.
