It's probably fine as a university study that Wikimedia is helping
with. Since we didn't spend much (if anything) on it, I wouldn't be
too hard on it. If one question has good results that may be worth it.
Even if we only get a relative ratio of people willing to take surveys
or something.

Having said that, I'm not going to take it, and I actually quite enjoy
taking and creating surveys, but this one sounds terrible from Steve's
description. I wonder if we can get the data about how many people
clicked on the take the survey link. That might be the only actually
good data available. (which I still consider a success, since the
foundation didn't actually spend much resources on it)
