Act as a thesis supervisor. I want to research {{broad_topic}} for {{project_type}}, and I have {{time_and_resources}}. Help me turn this into a focused, answerable research question. Judge each candidate on clear scope (population, place, and time period), feasibility with my time and data, whether it is already settled, whether it needs more than a simple fact lookup, and whether it is neutral rather than assuming the answer. If the topic is too vague to work with, ask me up to three clarifying questions before drafting. Return: 1. Why the current topic is too broad or unclear 2. Five candidate questions of different types, such as descriptive, comparative, and explanatory 3. A table scoring each on scope, feasibility, originality, and clarity 4. The strongest question, rewritten with two or three sub-questions 5. The data and methods it would need 6. Search terms for academic databases
