Frankly, I don't think that the "test" is particularly accurate ...
One's personal interpretation and the reasons for them have a lot more going into them than this really allows for ... what makes a story participant rank best and worst is really open to interpretation. In no way would I actually put business second in that list in real life, but in terms of the story, the boatman acted in an appropriately businesslike manner (I've heard a version where the story goes "well, L, since you don't have any money, you can sleep with me every night for one week" says the Boatman, which puts an entirely different spin on things.
Ah well.
