Some of the questions are hard to answer with a clear true or false because they're the kind of questions you'd have to answer in the exam, and talk about different arguments before you reach a judgement, e.g. what visitations showed - because the reliability of the visitations' findings is debatable and e.g. whether simony was an issue among higher clergy - we just don't know, because there's so little evidence for both sides of the argument ... most of the questions were really good, but don't always trust the textbook :P
