Are older PT questions like PT6 S3 #7 worded confusingly? Forum

For this question, the correct ans is A, which talks about "a financial drain on taxes." I took that to mean a BIG drain that spends 99% of taxes. They only mean that the "drain" costs "some" money not a BIG amount. This confused me.
I chose ans D because of this.
Do older PTs in general have ambiguous language like this, or do newer PTs have this too? The few newer PTs I have done appeared clearer in what the words meant. The logic is still tough, but the language is not ambiguous.

This is classic LSAT language that would be right at home on any prep test.

Sans a modifier, this could mean anywhere from a tiny amount like 1% all the way to 99%. What makes this question tougher is the the stimulus has 2 conclusions and the question directs you to one specifically.

Yes, tks, that confused me too, hence I chose ans D with the motorcycle and horse, so I could kill two birds with one rock.
