Option D sounds like a recipe for a never-ending project. Refactoring tasks in every story? That's like trying to build a house while constantly fixing the foundation. No thanks!

I'm going with Option B - adjusting story points is the most honest and straightforward approach. No beating around the bush with this one.

I think we should go with Option A - posting and discussing rises in the burn down chart.

Option B is the way to go. The product owner will thank you for being upfront about the technical debt and its impact on the project.

Burn down charts are great, but they don't really capture the impact of technical debt. Option A doesn't seem like the best choice here.

Adding refactoring tasks to all stories, as in Option D, sounds like a lot of extra work. I'm not sure that's the most efficient solution.

I like the idea of logging technical debt as an impediment in Option C. That way, it stays visible and can't be ignored.
