That makes sense, thanks for explaining. I'll go with D) as well.

Sure, D) is the option that specifies the '--subdirs' flag which should include all subdirectories with files containing 'lpi' in their name

I think option C includes the --deep flag which should search for files containing 'lpi' in their name within subdirectories.
