I’m leaning towards "white and gray area" because it seems to fit the context of subjective decisions in accounting. But I could be mixing it up with another question!

I’m really uncertain about this one. I feel like it could be any of the options, but "gray area" sounds familiar from our discussions.

I'm a bit confused on this one. I know there are a lot of different forensic tools out there, but I'm not sure which one is specifically for Linux. Gotta think this through.

Okay, I've got this. Based on my understanding, RSRP (Reference Signal Received Power) is the main metric used to determine when a handover should occur in the LTE system. I'm confident that's the right answer.
