All of the following, if true, make it more difficult to determine Ozzie's position on an issue EXCEPT which one?
A) The company may be faced by the same question at different points in time.
B) The founders did not face many of the questions that the current company faces.
C) The reasoning behind the founders' decisions is often difficult to determine.
D) The records of the founders' decisions are incomplete.
E) The identity of the company's founders is itself a controversial question.
Answer: A
Explanation: A) Ozzie wants the company to do what the founders would have done. But that would be hard if it isn't clear who the founders really were (Choice E), if we don't know what they decided (Choice D), or if they never faced a decision like the ones the company faces today (Choice B). Even if we knew who they were and what they decided, and their decision is relevant to a current situation, we would still need to know why they did what they did (Choice C) in order to apply their thought process today. The one choice that doesn't point out a problem is Choice A. The founders' opinions aren't going to change, and so trying to find out their views were on something shouldn't yield a different result every time. The answer will be the same no matter when the question is asked, and so Choice A doesn't point out a difficulty in figuring out what Ozzie would think.
