Does anyone else find that answer A could be a necessary assumption answer? Or am I way off-base for thinking that?

Did anyone else base their answer on the "not now preferable" and "presently not comparable" parts of this argument? I follow the VT and SEVT distinctions just fine, and during review, I can understand, but I was having some trouble during the actual drill because I thought that those two made a connection. Do you think this follows logically?
