I don't see how there'd be "correct" and "incorrect" answers in that.
Q: What career would you like to pursue? A: art or music
Q: are you ok with ..(see post) A: no
What this tells the student is that you may want to reconsider your path if you're not cool with a bit of uncertainty.

If you present the decision tree with a series of Boolean options, a correct or incorrect approach makes sense. Again, this shit was a thing back in the 90s and it was all about guiding kids by showing them a gentle reality of choices. Not dystopian at all.
