I thought MSAs were defined by having a core city, but I can't remember if it was 50,000 or if there were other criteria involved.

I remember practicing a question about metropolitan areas, and I think it mentioned a population density requirement. Was it 1,000 persons per square mile?

I feel confident that the answer is D. The "user" option is specifically designed to allow non-root users to mount the file system.
