Understandable, though we made even-numbered responses as a requirement for a reason. It doesn't just look nicer, it also prevents bias. If you have one answer option sticking out as a single among a bunch of doubles, then that could skew results.

This sounds like pseudo-science to me. With only two choices or even numbered choices you also increase the chance of a non-useful tie. The real reason is probably this: Even numbered choices were easier to make look better.
