   Kinda a cool idea, but not a very challenging test. I mean, all the languages (with the exception of the last) were quite common. And one was actually incorrect.

   Vg jnf kugzy, abg ugzy. Bar pubvpr jnf kzy, juvpu vf n fhcrefrg bs kugzy, naq gurersber grpuavpnyyl gur evtug nafjre. Ugzy jbhyqa’g unir frys-pybfrq gur OEf.

   Plus, the quiz script wasn’t written particularly well.

   Even so, nice 100%. I only got 92%, which means I probably shouldn’t be complaining about it.

   And how bad is it that I can recognize ROT-13 on sight?

   Is it also bad that I want to learn to read/write it like I do normal text?

   At any rate, you are, sir, perfectly correct.

   Recognizing ROT-13 on sight is good. Being able to read/write it would be absolutely amazing. But yes, probably bad. Like memorizing pi to anything beyond ~10 decimal places.
