I’m leaning towards option D, but I’m not confident. I thought impact analysis was crucial for understanding risks, not a drawback.
RA

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like assigning numeric values isn't really a drawback. It seems more like a necessary part of the process.
NE

I guess it depends on the specific needs of the project.
CR
Crista
