I think D is the way to go here. Getting the teams to work together across functions and learn about each other's roles and responsibilities seems like the best approach to break down those silos and antagonism.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused by this question. The teams are "feuding" but it's not clear what the root cause is. I'm not sure if process improvement or technical skills training would really address the underlying interpersonal issues.

Wait, is there a potential issue with the `cout` statements? I seem to remember something about the order of operations there. I better be careful to make sure I'm printing the values correctly.
