Yeah, that's the problem I've faced with cloze-delete cards in general, and why I've never really found them worth the time. For this particular card, you're probably right that splitting it in two could remove the ambiguity, but there are plenty of other cards for which this could not be done without using horribly contrived example sentences.
And you're right about recognition being all that is really necessary for the JLPT. Perhaps, since that's what I've set as my goal, that should be what I practice. I guess I'm just sick of not ever being able to put my thoughts into words, especially when I know that I know the structure I want to use, but just can't find it it my mind.
