Not sure about D, feels like a workaround.

Wait, can you really just set it as required on the layout?

A won't guarantee a selection, that's risky!

I think B could work too, but C is cleaner.

C is the best option, makes it mandatory.

I think marking it as Required on the page layout might not enforce it during updates, so I’m leaning towards the field definition option.

I feel like using the first value as a default could lead to issues if someone doesn't change it.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think setting a validation rule might be overkill for this scenario.

I remember we discussed that marking a field as Required in the field definition is a solid way to ensure a value is always selected.

Okay, I've got a strategy for this. Since the question mentions Kusto queries, I'm guessing the answer is a Log Analytics workspace. That would allow me to use the powerful Kusto query language to analyze the audit logs. And it should minimize administrative effort compared to setting up something like an event hub.
