Yes, except that to minimize anchoring, I would put them in reverse order of frequency.
I don't think so.
Let's say you seperate numbers into four piles:
Group A: 1-5
Group B: 5-25
Group C: 25-90
Group D: 90-100
How should you list those groups to minize that someone picks the wrong group? C, B, D, A seems to be the best order.
Separating out on group into two subgroups shouldn't put them higher but lower on the list.
IAWYC, but with that particular example any order other than A, B, C, D would violate the principle of least astonishment.
