LSAT Writing: Can I choose both arguments?

So I was reading the LSAC practice prompt and was wondering if I could answer with "This plan is currently the most effective strategy, but eventually they should expand to a national strategy once regional expansion is established." Here is the prompt: https://www.lsac.org/lsat/lsat-prep/practice-test/writing-sample-topic

Could anyone let me know if this is a factor that would hurt me and my argument or if it's okay to answer any which way.

For Q21, I chose D mainly because I don't have a true understanding of what that answer choice means, but I see it often. Could someone provide clarity as to what "mistakes a condition sufficient for bringing about a result for a condition necessary to do so" means? I thought in this context it meant "Minivans are sufficient enough to bring about less accidents, and the author's error was believing a minivan was necessary to bring about less accidents". ALSO, how is this different from the "infers a cause from a correlation"? (I have a sense of why but I'd love to have it articulated to me)
