Don't really agree with the first part of the analysis for why A is wrong. If you look at the end of passage 2, "*two* recent court cases .... illustrate the problem [of the definition of tradition]". Clearly both the court cases are cited as challenges to the definition by themselves, regardless of the outcome of the first one. Just because the court decided to uphold the definition doesn't mean that the first case wasn't a valid challenge. In fact we have no reason to suspect there's any difference between the two cases that would make one a valid challenge and the other one not so, other than the outcome, which could just be evidence of the court finally coming to their senses.
Still though B is not general enough to summarize the passage like you said.
In the "Let's Review" section, shouldn't it be "Captures the perspective advanced by the author (or the perspective the author focuses on, if she doesn’t make HER opinion known)," since "she" was used earlier?
