You know, I heard the last team that tried option D ended up with a backlog that was longer than War and Peace. I'm going with B - iterative development is the way to go, especially for a complex project. And it's the only option that doesn't involve me having to decipher the stakeholders' hieroglyphics.

I'm torn between B and C. As a product owner, I'd love to just fill out the backlog myself, but I know that's a recipe for disaster. Maybe I'll just hire a skywriter to spell out the requirements and hope the stakeholders get the hint.

Definitely B. Agile is all about iterating and adapting, not trying to get everything set in stone from the beginning. Plus, I hear the stakeholders can get a little, shall we say, 'creative' with their requirements. Better to take it one step at a time.

D seems like a good option, but I'm worried the stakeholders might not have a complete understanding of the project at the start. I'd go with B to stay agile and responsive to changes.

I think the answer is B. Delivering the basic requirements iteratively allows the team to gather feedback and refine the backlog as they go, which is crucial for a complex project with evolving requirements.
