The key thing here is to make the question much more direct and
snappier. Because that can come at the cost of precision and
descriptiveness I think it is probably essential to have additional
infoboxes (as in original eutopia). Obviously space is more limited on
the right but we could just put this below the question as in:

{Question}
{Slider}
[Explanation Box]

Or:

{Question}      [Explanation Box]
{Slider}          [Explanation Box]

Rather than commenting here. I've posted the questions online here and
people can edit and suggest. Please dive in.
