I can't get over the fact that the third sentence says, "Spent fuel rods never contain significant quantities of tellurium isotopes." If that word was stricken from the stimulus, then the case for (B) would be closed and shut in my view. But the "significant" modifier leaves open the possibility for any amount of tellurium isotopes to have spent fuel rods as a source. There is nothing in the stimulus that indicates tellurium isotopes need to be relatively abundant in order to be detectable by researchers. That really does leave open the possibility of spent fuel rods, and if that's still an open possibility, then that places (B) entirely in question because then there's a chance that spent fuel rods are the only source of the released isotopes.

I understand that this is an MSS question and the correct answer does not need to be completely valid, but the expectation to grasp these details and make these assumptions within 2 or so minutes troubles me a bit.

I got this correct because I found answer choice (C) to have the most support, but isn't "a few hundred degrees Celsius" being "well above" a subjective observation? Wouldn't that hurt the answer choice at least slightly?

Investigator: Ben visited Kevin's house in Home Alone 1. Five minutes after Ben's arrival, police arrive to the scene to find the windows shattered and roof dented. Ben walks out in a trance. My hypothesis is that Kevin attacked Ben, leaving him in perpetual shock.
