I mean, this is easy to understand why this happened though, right?

Yeah that's a user mistake, not the software. They simply are not as water of the output formatting -and most likely the quiz buttons get randomized anyway.

And no, this is not "software needs to prevent user mistake" territory either as the questions need to be a free text field.

No one would blame the software if the lines would be "the answer is eight" instead of a repetition of the answer options.
