There are different systems that interpret it differently.
What I don't like is that it says BOTH ARE EQUALLY CORRECT.
No, they are not. It's too completely different results. If you want to confuse kids with notational ambiguity, fine. But at least say it's ambiguous. Once it's ambiguous, the first thing you usually do is settle on a convention, so it's not ambiguous.
What is the test going to look like? You just pick an answer? That's truly idiotic. No, you tell kids what notation will be used during that course and that's it.
The same way I don't jump around between kilos and pounds if it's not specified. You don't just say both are correct. I hope none of these kids ever become doctors or they might overdose a patient.
That there are actually teachers who defend this is baffling. But then again, high school teachers didn't make it to anything better in the industry and they weren't good enough to teach at universities, so what do you expect?
