I agree with Ashley, because each switch has 2 possible states, so we need 2^4 - 1 = 15 test cases for 1-switch coverage.

But if we consider all possible paths, it makes sense that we would need 10 test cases for 1-switch coverage.

10 test cases, huh? Sounds about right. Time to show off my state diagram mastery.

9 test cases? Seriously? That's way too easy. I need a challenge, not a walk in the park.
