I agree, that password choice is questionable.

Wait, why would you use "notsafepw" as a password? Seems sketchy!

I think both options have issues, but A is closer.

Yeah, I noticed that too. B is definitely wrong.

Just a heads up, the confirm password for rekeying should match the new password!

I definitely remember using `ansible-vault create` for creating the file, but I’m not sure if the rekey command was exactly as shown in option A or B.

I’m a bit confused about the password confirmation step. I thought it was just supposed to match the new password, but what if I typed it wrong?

I practiced a similar question, and I feel like the confirmation password should match the new password. I hope I didn’t mix that up!

I think I remember that the command to create the vault is correct, but I’m not sure about the rekeying part. Did we have to confirm the new password exactly?

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I know Scrum has specific roles, but I can't quite remember which one is responsible for ensuring the team completes their tasks. Let me think this through.

Hmm, the wording is tricky. I'd look for key phrases about professional standards and expertise.
