Neutral

No, most citizens couldn’t even pass a citizenship test

Neo-Confucianism might see the irony in this statement and use it as a call for broader educational reforms rather than as an argument against citizenship tests per se. It would likely advocate for improving the general population's understanding of their own country's language, history, and government, alongside any requirements for immigrants.
