I have to agree with your concern. It seems that the goal here isn't to identify certain traits in order to encourage and develope them in the people who exhibit them, but to give employers another tool to reach into our heads and exclude free thinkers from their businesses. Who in the business world is going to choose "creative" over "productive and economically benificial"? These sorts of tests pop up all over the place too, even for minimum wage jobs. Even though I haven't been negatively effected by these tests, at least that I know of, I'm not a fan of them.
