I think option C about precise definitions causing contention sounds familiar from our practice questions, but I’m a bit uncertain about the wording.

I remember discussing how rules-based approaches can be inflexible and expensive, but I'm not sure if that's one of the disadvantages listed here.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'll need to think carefully about the requirements - limited connectivity and minimizing costs. Azure Container Instances might be a good option since it's serverless and could scale to meet the needs.

I think E is also a downside. Who's going to be the 'objective' enforcer, and how do we know they're really impartial? Sounds like a recipe for more problems.
