Explain This?

I got this one right by eliminating the others, however, could I get a further explanation on this question? The video didn't make a lot of sense to me on this one.

Scratch that, I figured it out. I guess a better question(s) would be this.

For rule sub, any overarching advice for methodology?

And would scenarios play a role here? I started to do it and then I just foresaw too many options, and wasn't comfortable potentially wasting that much time. If scenarios make sense here for someone who likes to do the work upfront, what would those scenarios be?

I would say I have two ways to approach rule sub questions. First, I would look for ways to restate the rule using other rules. That is, if we are replacing a rule that if A then B, and we have another rule that tells us that if C then A, we would know that if C then B would recreate the initial rule.

This is pretty common that the correct answer will be a deduction we made off the initial rule.

As a fallback, the right answer will be something that does not allow anything that was previously banned, and does not ban anything that was previously allowed.

By that I mean that it must not let the old rule be violated in a newly valid scenario, and it can't be violated by anything that the old rule would have allowed.
