362 minutes? Seems a bit too optimistic to me.

This is a tricky one. I'm not totally confident, but I think the key is understanding how the shift in production strategy affects where the customer order gets incorporated. I'll review my notes and then make my best guess.

This is a tricky one. I'm not entirely sure about the best practice here, but I think the key is to avoid overwriting existing content when importing updates. So I'm leaning towards option A or D, where we either use new app names or include both existing and new content.
