I’m leaning towards D, but I’m not confident since I know Excel works well with CSV and similar formats.

PCTFREE defaults to 10% for all blocks, and ASSM assigns blocks to different fullness categories based on the percentage of the block that's allocated for rows. The key is to understand how insert and update operations work with those block fullness categories.
