I feel pretty confident about this one. I think option D is the correct answer - bending the rules is not the same as outright breaking them. The other options seem to be advocating for rule-breaking, which I don't think is the right approach.

Okay, I've got a strategy for this. I'm going to think about the ethical principles involved here and try to determine which statement best aligns with those principles. That should help me narrow it down.

I think I'd start by carefully reading through each option and trying to identify the key differences between them. The wording can be tricky, so I'd want to make sure I fully understand what each statement is saying.

True, understanding the nuances can change your choice completely.
