Hi Ryan, thanks for the question!

The principle is stating that if anyone creates an unfair situation (in this case, the corporation labeling the coupon with an incorrect expiry date), then they must rectify the situation.

But in E, we do not know if the reason for denying the customer the coupon was the company's fault or not. Therefore, we cannot make a judgment saying that they should or shouldn't rectify the situation.

Look at C, it says the issue that the customers may have is due to the expiry date, which we know the company is at fault for. That's why the corporation should fix that issue.

Hope this helps!

in adaptive principle this is listed as a principle question, but in this section it is listed at sufficient and necessary. Are the strategies for each interchangeable in correctly identifying the correct answer for this question stem?

This is a principle question, that tests your knowledge of sufficient and necessary.

Sufficient and necessary is a lesson we have, as it's just one of those core fundamental skills on the test- same with quantifiers. However it's not a question type. Any question type can test your understanding of sufficient and necessary, or of quantifiers, or of both. Your strategy shouldn't shift, but remember that no matter the question type you can see sufficient and necessary reasoning.
