No, it should not. The Greek Catholics, Armenian Cathlics etc. are as Catholic as the Roman Catholics, and are also "obedient to the pope in Rome".

Orthodox? Nope.

Eastern Orthodox? Nope.

Orthodoxy? Nope.

Eastern Orthodoxy? Nope.

So... "Orthodox Church" is the only thing you accept? And none of the others that make it clear I know what the answer is?

No, this strictness turns it from a game of trivia into one of "guess the specific phrase that the quiz setter has in their head." Which, quite frankly, makes for a poor quiz. I strongly recommend this approach be re-thought.

I agree, I couldn’t understand why Orthodox wasn’t accepted. And I knew Sunni and Shia, but not that specific spelling they wanted

Where are you getting these numbers from, if I may ask? I think your source is quite outdated. there are almost 2 billion muslims and way over 2 billion christians in the world now.
