Yeah, you're right.

Currently trying to figure out how to do that in the least intrusive way.

EDIT: Good news it turns out that I can edit the calibration question 'answers' after all. The ones where a range would make sense have been edited to include one. Questions such as "which is heavier" have not been because the ignorance prior should be fairly obvious.

Fri Mar 25 19:50:41 PDT 2016 | Answers on or before this date where the ranges have been added will be controlled for at analysis time.

If you throw out the data, I request you keep the thrown-out data somewhere else so I can see how people responded to the issue.

I don't throw out data. Ever. I only control for it. (Well barring exceptional circumstances.)
