I'm still not sure I get it Birkir. The checkboxes are only of interest when you select Yes so if you select the No radio button it doesn't seem to be important to know that the checkboxes were there when Yes was selected but are no longer there. They're simply not relevant to you. And I don't see why it would be important, or even helpful, to tell the user in advance that if they select Yes some more checkboxes will appear. If they do select Yes then they the checkboxes will be the next question they come across, in the same way that if they had selected No the next question would be a different one. Am I missing something in the experience?
