Selected Answer: D
If a requirement does not deliver any benefit to stakeholders and does not align with the solution scope, the most logical action is to eliminate the requirement. Keeping such a requirement would add unnecessary complexity, increase project costs, and waste resources.

D: A requirement can be of benefit to a stakeholder and still not be a desirable part of a solution. A requirement that does not deliver benefit to a stakeholder is a strong candidate for elimination. When requirements do not align, either the future state must be re-evaluated and the solution scope changed, or the requirement removed from the solution scope. If a design cannot be validated to support a requirement, there might be a missing or misunderstood requirement, or the design must change.

D. You would change solution scope if as BABOK says' A requirement can be of benefit to a stakeholder and still not be a desirable part of a solution' . However, if it is of no benefit to any stakeholder, 'A requirement that does not deliver benefit to a stakeholder is a strong candidate for elimination" . You eliminate it

Answer C--Change the solution scope. Based on the line in question "After much discussion, the stakeholders decide that the requirement does not align with the solution scope."

Con’t: A requirement that does not deliver benefit to a stakeholder is a strong candidate for elimination. When requirements do not align, either the future state must be re-evaluated and the solution scope changed, or the requirement removed from the solution scope. If a design cannot be validated to support a requirement, there might be a missing or misunderstood requirement, or the design must change. Please provide me your thoughts.
