Not sure about that, I feel like it could reduce risk instead.

Too narrow tolerance can definitely slow down implementation.

I’m leaning towards option D because if the tolerance is too tight, it seems like it would create bottlenecks in the program.

I feel like we talked about communication issues arising from too many changes, but I can't recall if that was specifically linked to narrow tolerances.

I think we practiced a question about how minor changes can accumulate and affect the overall timeline. Maybe that's why option D makes sense?

I remember discussing how a narrow tolerance could lead to delays, but I'm not sure if that directly relates to implementation slowing down.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. The wording is a bit tricky, and I want to make sure I don't miss any important details. I'll read through it a couple of times to make sure I understand.
