But C seems wrong. Unions and Joins complicate things, not simplify.

I feel like option A might be misleading; even with multidimensional data, sometimes calculations are still necessary, right?

I remember practicing a question where we discussed how multidimensional reports can reduce the need for unions, so I lean towards B as well.

I think option B makes sense because MDX can simplify complex queries, but I'm not entirely sure how it compares to traditional SQL.

Option B sounds promising, but I want to make sure I really grasp how MDX can reduce the need for unions and make queries more maintainable. Gotta study up on that.

I'm a bit confused about option C. I thought unions and joins could complicate things rather than clarify them for developers.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused. I'm not sure I fully understand the tradeoffs between multidimensional and traditional queries. Need to think this through more.
