Yeah, they like to do things like include a word in the 5-category that also fits with the 2, misleading you into thinking you've identified the 3. Really the only reliable way to avoid both type I and type II errors is to work the whole thing out in your head before submitting a single guess, but that's annoying. Solving 5 first is pretty good too; they can still trick you, but it's at least difficult to design a puzzle that contains both a true and a false 5. Except by including a 6, but that's at least something you have a shot at detecting before you click.

Am giving up stacked goat. It’s too much like connections for me to ever like it. Given how much connections annoys me.
