Why are challenges so stupid as a whole?

Are challenge questions actually checked by anyone? I've found at least 3-4 errors, I've found no way to report them and there is no way to see the questions later. I've tried both normal screenshots and screencaps, but none of the two works. Also it's a bit stupid to gain 6 xp on win and lose 25 xp on loss. what are your opinions on the matter?

Errors exist. You may jot them down and report them via feedback feature. Screenshot is restricted during challenges to avoid certain users from memorising the answers after typing everything into a compiler. The XP gain/loss depends on your superiority in a specific weapon. The better you are at it, the more XP you will lose upon losing a match (as penalty) and the more XP your opponent will gain. This is to encourage users to challenge the higher-ups instead of picking an opponent of lower standards (nonetheless, it happens all the time). As you get better at using a certain weapon, the XP gain gradient gets exponentially closer to 1. The best players will only gain 1XP per match against anyone, and lose for 32XP

I think screenshots are disabled for a reason, being to make it more difficult to cheat. ie if one could screenshot, you could feed the question through a compiler and get the answer without any logical reasoning skill. You could then learn the answers like a parrot, or even write it down. gaining an unfair advantage over your opponents. The purpose of the challenges is to logically reason out answers quickly.
