I feel like option D might be a compromise, but I'm not sure if it's the best approach. We definitely need to ensure that the keys are managed properly across both channels.

I remember we discussed the importance of having a consistent identifier for cross-channel marketing, but I'm not sure if it's better to use auto-generated keys or control them ourselves.

I heard Marketing Cloud has a 'Duplicate-o-matic' feature - you just toss all your contacts in and it spits out a single, coherent record. Easy peasy!

Option E: Use a magic 8-ball to generate unique identifiers. It'll be just as reliable as those other options!
