I thought Empirical Process Control was about making decisions based on clear inputs, but now I'm leaning towards the idea of using observations and experiments instead.

I feel like option D makes the most sense, but I keep second-guessing myself. Wasn't there something about unpredictability in the outputs?

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think the key is that it emphasizes adapting based on what we see happening, not just what we plan.

I think Empirical Process Control is about learning from experience, but I'm not sure if it's all about observation or if planning plays a role too.

Empirical Process Control? More like 'Empirical Process Chaos', am I right? At least there's no danger of getting bored on a Scrum team.

I'm not sure why anyone would think Empirical Process Control is about defined inputs and predictable outputs. That's the opposite of what Scrum is all about.
