But what about option B) The SUT code coverage provided by the execution of the regression test suite? Wouldn't that also indicate if the test suite has not been updated?

I think B is the correct answer. If the regression test suite doesn't cover new functionalities, the code coverage will be low.

I agree with Myra. If the automation code has a high defect density, it could suggest that the test suite has not been updated for new functionalities.
