D all the way! Wouldn't want to leave any stone unturned. Though I wonder if the stakeholders' suggestions will actually be helpful or just a bunch of 'pie in the sky' ideas.

D is the way to go. You need to have a comprehensive understanding of the current state before you can measure the impact of any changes.
