Correct. A dumb idea is exactly what she was asked to produce.

They also asked for ideas that would make the world a better place, which this wouldn't. So it's just a dumb idea with mainly negative side effects.

I think they weren't asking for an idea that would actually make the world a better place but rather one that somebody on some level believes would make the world a better place. Hence it still being a stupid idea.

If it were somehow magically possible to force people to use turn signals but only when they turn at intersections or change lanes, I think it would, in fact, make the world a better place. Because it would mean less car crashes.

But it's not possible, which is why it's a dumb idea.
