I feel like defining product family priorities is important, but it seems more like a part of the process rather than a key benefit.

I remember a practice question that mentioned evaluating business plans as a key aspect of S&OP. That might be the right answer.

I think the S&OP process definitely helps with communication, but I'm not sure if it's the main benefit.

I'm a bit confused by the map operations here. I'll need to review how the map data structure works to make sure I understand what the code is doing.
