artwork: Point @ Issue

Walter: A copy of an artwork should be worth exactly what the original is worth if the two works are visually indistinguishable. After all, if the two works are visually indistinguishable, they have all the same qualities, and if they have all the same qualities, their prices should be equal.

Marissa: How little you understand art! Even if someone could make a perfect copy that is visually indistinguishable from the original, the copy would have a different history and hence not have all the same qualities as the original.

Which of the following is a point at issue between Walter and Marissa?

(A) Whether a copy of an artwork could ever be visually indistinguishable from the original

(B) Whether the reproduction of a work of art is ever worth more than the original is worth

(C) Whether a copy of a work of art is ever mistaken for the original

(D) Whether a copy of a work of art could have all the same qualities as the original

(E) Whether originality is the only valuable attribute that a work of art can possess

I had [spoiler][D][/spoiler] & [spoiler][E][/spoiler] as contenders. I ended up selecting the wrong one. Could you please share your part of reasoning?

Thanks.

My Answer: D

Situation:
Walter:
1. two works are indistinguishable
2. they have the same qualities
3. they should have the same price

Marissa:
1. two works are indistinguishable
2. they do not have the same qualities

A. this is the operational premise for both Walter and Marissa.
B. Marissa doesn't mention price. A more likely point of contention would be whether the copy should be worth less, not more, than the original
C. same as A
D. This is where they differ (c.f. point 2)
E. not a point of contention.
