The movement of the progress bar may be uneven becouse questions can be worth more or less (including zero) depending on your answer
Read the following passage:
"During the 2018 eruption of Kilauea Volcano in Hawaii, millions of people were riveted by images of lava spreading across the landscape and
into the sea. Many wondered who owns this strange new landscape. According to the Hawaii Supreme Court, it depends. If the lava covered
existing ground, the previous landowners retain possession. Too bad it's now a steaming hellscape with zero property value. Where lava hit the
ocean and hardened, adding completely new land along the coast, it belongs to the state. People who own what used to be oceanfront property will
have to be content with being merely close to the beach instead."
