I'm guessing the developers who came up with this question are just trying to trip us up. 'Substantially reduced usability' is clearly a critical defect, duh.

D is the only logical choice here. If the usability is 'substantially reduced', that's a critical problem, no doubt about it.

I was debating between C and D, but D makes the most sense. You can't just call that a 'major' problem, it's way more serious than that.
