Wait, are they really recording it as $10? That seems off.

I'm feeling pretty confident about this one. The highest mitigation with the budget constraint points to option B. Enabling host build reserve and a 4-node vSAN cluster seems like the best approach.

I'm pretty confident the answer is B. The question is about a checkout requirement, so the Checkout Preferences module is the most likely place to find the setting to disable a credit card type.
