Definitely A, B, and D. Gotta hit them with that Agile philosophy hard. And don't forget the good old 'understand and exploit variability' - that's some classic product development wisdom right there.

Explaining that too much up-front detail demotivates Product Owners is crucial.

Haha, E? Really? 'Development doesn't need to commit to anything in Agile'? Yeah, good luck selling that one to the decision-makers. Might as well just go back to waterfall while you're at it.

I agree with Elouise, those are solid choices. But I'd also throw in C to really drive home the point that too much up-front detail can be demotivating for the Product Owners. Gotta keep them engaged, you know?

A, B, and D are definitely the way to go. Illustrating the power of feedback and emphasizing the Agile principle of responding to change will really hit home. Plus, the 'understand and exploit variability' idea is key for this situation.
