Okay, let me think this through. The question is asking about the rights of the account owner, so I need to focus on that and not get distracted by the other details.

This is a tricky one! I was debating between A and B, but I think A makes the most sense. Re-testing is just repeating the same tests, while regression testing is about finding new issues.
