This is a tricky one. I'm not entirely sure which option best fits the explanation provided. I'll need to re-read the question and options a few times to make sure I understand what they're asking for.

Okay, I think I've got this. The key is to focus on the reasons mentioned in the question stem - the longer the horizon, the greater the visibility, the better the ability to avoid problems, and the better the ability to take advantage of special circumstances. Option D seems to capture all of those factors.
