Adding risk mitigation time to each requirement sounds familiar, but I wonder if that would really help in the long run.

I feel like just holding risks until they become issues is too reactive. We should definitely do something before they escalate.

This is a tricky one. I'm leaning towards option C, the 80/20 rule. Reserving some capacity for risk mitigation could help us stay on top of things without overloading the backlog. But I'd need to think it through a bit more.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure here. Should we really be adding more tasks to the backlog? Option C about reserving capacity for risk mitigation sounds interesting, but I'm not sure how that would work in practice.

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. C looks interesting - reserving 20% of each sprint for risk mitigation could be a good safety net.
