Hey, I heard that 'assuming variability' is like assuming your coworker will forget to refill the coffee pot. Might as well just make your own brew, right?

I'm going with D. Gotta keep those options open, baby! Variety is the spice of life, am I right?

Option C looks good to me. Assuming variability of scope while having a fixed solution context seems like a balanced approach.

Hmm, I'm torn between B and D. Preserving flexibility in the system functionality and design seems ideal, but I don't want to completely ignore the solution intent either.

I think B is the way to go. It's important to have a fixed Solution intent.

I see both points, but I think preserving flexibility in system functionality and design, but having fixed Solution intent (B) strikes a good balance.

I think option D is the way to go. Preserving flexibility in both system functionality and design aligns perfectly with the SAFe principle of 'Assume variability; preserve options'.

But wouldn't it be better to have a fixed Solution Context to provide some stability?

I think the best path is to assume variability of scope and preserve options for the release date (A).
