How is E correct? I feel E doesn't matter because the prompt is discussing "Liberating" and "eliminating" so I'm confused how E plays a role in that ...

@Meredith,
Great question. This answer choice is best understood if you consider that the word "eliminate" could mean to reduce the quantity rather than completely get rid of all the demeaning work. In other words, the robots would still eliminate some of the demeaning work if the amount of work created by them is less than the amount they eliminated. It is not a very intuitive interpretation when you first read the answer choices, so I can definitely see how it could be confusing.
Let me know if this helps and if you have any further questions.
