I’m leaning towards the Product Owner too, but I wonder if the Developers also play a significant role in delivering value.

I remember a practice question where it emphasized the role of the Scrum Master, but I feel like the Product Owner has more responsibility in this case.

Based on my understanding of Scrum, the Product Owner is the one who is primarily accountable for the value of the product. They're the ones who define the product vision and work with the team to deliver it.

I'm a little confused by this question. Isn't the whole Scrum team responsible for delivering value? I'll have to re-read the Scrum guide to make sure I understand this properly.

This kind of situation feels similar to practice questions where connectivity issues arise; so I'm leaning towards option B—ensuring TCP connections are stable.

All of the above? Come on, that's just trying to confuse us. The Product Owner is clearly the one in charge of product value.

The developers? Really? I mean, they're the ones building the product, but the Product Owner is the one calling the shots on what's valuable.

I think the whole team should be involved in ensuring customer value, but the Product Owner is the one who's ultimately responsible. That's the way it should be.
