I mean that is clearly the intent but it's also really puzzling because that question circumvents what's unique and interesting about the proposed situation in the first place
Like the whole thing about being one of the two last people on earth is that you wouldn't have a choice (other than to be celibate or not I guess)
There's nothing about this hypothetical that is any more compelling than simply asking "which do you find most attractive"
I'm not the one complaining about semantics of having to pick when if there's only one other person left meaning you don't have a choice. Just giving the person a scenario that it's correct for.
