I’ve gone so far as to explain in my answer why a question is ambiguous and to give answers for the multiple interpretations.
I had one class that I dropped for many, many reasons, and one of the reasons was frequent ambiguous questions when the tests were all online and multiple choice. Some questions were ambiguous in a way that made the T/F answer invert depending on how you read the question. (To be clear, these were not trick questions that required precise reading. They were just bad questions.) Students never knew why they got the answer wrong unless they asked, which few did. A fair number of students started believing the opposite of the truth as a result of getting a question wrong on the test due to the ambiguity.
