I'm partial to Option D. Custom metadata types are like the Rolls-Royce of Salesforce metadata, and they're perfect for this use case. Plus, they're super elegant, like a well-tailored suit.

I'd probably go with Option C. Creating a custom object gives you more flexibility in terms of managing the service centers, and it's a straightforward solution.

I disagree, I believe option A is more suitable as hierarchical custom settings can be accessed easily by different components and are also customizable.
