Adding it to the next iteration sounds like a cop-out.

I vaguely recall that resizing stories can lead to issues with trust in the team. So, I guess option B might be the safest choice?

I think we had a practice question about a similar situation where the team needed to come to a consensus. Maybe the Product Owner should facilitate that instead?

I'm not sure if stopping the sizing is a good idea. It feels like it could lead to more confusion later on.

I remember discussing how the Product Owner should empower the team rather than dictate decisions. So, I think option B makes sense.

I'm feeling pretty confident about this one. I think the best approach would be to go with option B and continue to support the team's decision on sizing. The team knows the work best, and the Product Owner shouldn't override their judgment.

I'd probably suggest option C and have the team stop the sizing and add it to the next iteration as-is. That way, they can focus on other priorities and come back to it with a fresh perspective.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused here. I'm not sure if the Product Owner should be overriding the team's decision or if they should just let the team work it out.

This seems like a tricky one. I'm not sure if I should go with the Product Owner's previous domain expertise or trust the team's decision-making process.

The key here is that Diana and the project team decided to remove the pure risk by changing the project plan. That suggests the answer is C - a pure risk is one that only has a negative side.

The Product Owner was a domain expert, huh? Sounds like they're trying to pull a fast one on the team. Maybe they should just wear a cape and call themselves the 'Sizing Superhero'.

The Product Owner should continue to support the team's decision on sizing. They're the experts on the work, and imposing a top-down decision would undermine their autonomy.
