Sucre and La Paz, same country. You should have made a choice. Once one answers La Paz or Sucre, one assumes this is it for Bolivia and one looks for another country...

Just because it is the same country doesn't mean one should answer the other. They are both capital cities and they are both in the top 5 highest in the world.

There's no need to change something that is perfectly fine given the wording of the quiz just because you forgot it.

Let's say we can use both capitals, why cape town is not on the Southernmost capital ?

It is closer to the South (33° 55' 31" S) than Santiago (33° 26' 16" S) according to wikipedia...

The helpful thing to do would be adding a caveat that countries with more than one capital may appear multiple times in one category.

Then it would been displayed as Sucre/La Paz.

They are two distinct city with two different altitudes, it would be weird to just leave one out. The question asks for capital cities, not the country. So if they individually make it on the list they should be there.

I'm wondering what metric is used to measure "most expensive." London was a lot more expensive than Washington when I visited each of them last June, even when excluding the exchange rate.

I believe it is because New Delhi wouldn't make the list on its own, but Delhi does, and nerds might complain ;)

Why is Monaco not on most expensive? It's so expensive that a third of the people living there are millionaires (because no one else can afford it).
