Good point, but I wonder if it complicates the setup too much.

Seems a bit overkill to me, why not just use one instance?

I disagree, using the same instance could simplify things.

That makes total sense, separating SSO and provisioning is key!

I feel like we went over this in our last session. Using different app instances makes sense, but I wonder if there are other considerations we should keep in mind.

I'm a bit confused about the specifics of SAML 2.0. I know we shouldn't mix SSO and provisioning, but I can't recall why it's so critical.

I think we practiced a similar question about SAML configurations, and I recall that keeping SSO and provisioning separate was emphasized as a good strategy.

I remember we discussed how using separate app instances for SSO and provisioning can help avoid conflicts, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only best practice.

Okay, I think I've got this. The key is the phrase "automatically consent," which suggests a contract of adhesion where the terms are non-negotiable. I'm going to go with B.

Okay, I think the key here is looking for a network type that has redundant paths but doesn't have a protocol in place to prevent broadcast storms, like STP. That points me towards option D as the right answer.
