I've got questions of this form wrong a few times:
What is this noun's gender: ''lenteur'' ?(HINT: Look at the word's ending)
I wonder if a more useful hint for this type of question would be: "(HINT: The word is an abstract noun.)" as solely looking at the word's ending implies the word is masculine, and makes it more confusing rather than helping learn the exception.

Bonjour Luis,
After discussing this test question and your suggestion with the French language team, we agreed with you so we've amended it to avoid any ambiguity.
Merci et bonne journée !
