Question about List and style in HTML5 and CSS3 and later standards

Hello,

I don't know if you are the correct group to make this question because you
are the group of HTML5, and this question also includes CSS3, because the
HTML5 standard changed the specification in List and made the list-style a
CSS property.

In a test exam that I had a few weeks ago, one of the questions was:
5. The following statement ul {list-style-type: lower-alpha;} is included
within the organism's style sheet.
Indicate the purpose of the declaration:
a) Apply a marker type based on lowercase roman numerals to the lists.
b) Apply a marker type based on lowercase ASCII letters to the lists.
c) Apply a marker type based on lowercase Arabics letters to the lists.
d) Apply a marker type based on lowercase Greek letters to the lists.

In my opinion, there are two major mistakes in this question.
In one hand, the question is using a list-style-type for an ordered list
<ol> when it refers to an unordered list <ul> which is somewhat wrong, in
my view, but after HTML5, I am not sure if this is right or not, because,
in item 4.4.6 of the HTML5 specification, the <ol> element has a note
indicating that "list-style-type" is a CSS property, and in the CSS
specification, I haven't found what kind of list-style-type you can use for
each list type (ordered or unordered list).
And on the other hand, in each answer says that "Apply a marker type based
.... to the lists." which is false, because the property is only declared
for the unordered list <ul> and never for the ordered list <ol> or the
declaration list <dl>, which are all lists in HTML5.

Do you think that this question follows the HTML5 specification and is
everything ok?
Or is my point of view correct, and are there those two mistakes?

Thank you very much.

Regards,

Manuel Chamorro.

P.D.: If this is not the correct group to ask this question, could you tell
me what the correct group's email would be, please?
