"The submission questionnaire asks applicants to think about an activity
they do not want to do, how long they don't want to do it for, why it is
important to not do the specific thing in question, and why they are the
right person not to do it.

The idea is that refraining from doing something may actually benefit
others, who would otherwise be impacted by the negative consequences of
our actions."
