Hmm, I’m not so sure about that. Isn’t primaryPreferred risky?

Definitely E, it makes the most sense for failover.

Wait, can you really read from secondaries when the primary is down?

I'm a bit confused; I thought "nearest" was for latency optimization. Does it really allow reads from secondaries when the primary is down?

I'm not entirely sure, but "primaryPreferred" sounds familiar too. It prioritizes the primary but can fall back to secondaries, right?

I think the answer might be "secondaryPreferred" since it allows reads from secondaries when the primary is down.

I remember practicing a question like this, and I think "secondaryPreferred" was the one that allowed reads from secondaries when the primary isn't available.

This is a tricky one, but I think the key is to focus on network-level attacks that try to isolate or partition the blockchain. Eclipse and Sybil attacks seem like the most relevant options here.

Okay, I've got a strategy for this. I'll eliminate the options that don't seem directly relevant, then focus on evaluating the remaining choices to select the best answer.
