Since you a made compliment
, here is the main reason of the "more than three choices" menus:
First. It's not "always". There are many 3 choices menus.
Second. This is not just a track game. Each answer "configures" the character for later. The point system is also based on 6 characteristics of the main protagonists: [charismatic, emotional, intelligent, pragmatic, devious, determined]. These 6 aspects of the characters will make sense in the last part of the game, when the three of them are on a yacht. So sometimes, only 3 choices are not enough.
Third. Why isn't this explicit? Because the dev wants everyone to play as they are. It's a way to make the game uncertain. Some people may not like it, but it's a conscious choice since the very beginning.
You can't please everyone...
