The Deming cycle is definitely focused on improvement, so I'm leaning towards option A. But I'll double-check the other options just to be sure.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. There are a few options presented, and I'm not sure which one would be the best recommendation. I'll need to think through the pros and cons of each approach.
