Q. A manufacturer hogged the limelight with his claim that he had an invincible product, which was a panacea for a parent's worst fear, as the device could help find a lost child. The "location system", which packed a GPS receiver, pager and a snazzy wristwatch into a plastic amulet or a bracelet, came in both special and limited editions and at competitive price packages.

Which of the following is the most tenable reason to counter the manufacturer's claim about the invincibility of the product?

A. Other companies may soon follow suit by launching similar products
B. The price may not be suitable to parents of all income groups
C. Children often lose electronic gadgets while out playing
D. The battery might run out of power if the device had been in use for long duration
E. Some parents don't fear losing their children


Since A,B,E are irrelevant, I ruled out them.
I am confused with the options C & D
can anyone give me the answer, with explanation

I understand what you are saying, kschow, about it being hard for a child to lose an amulet or bracelet, however, at least it says that children OFTEN lose. And this seems to be less of an assumption (a child will take off a bracelet) as opposed to the assumption required in D. D says "The battery MIGHT run out of power if the device had been in use for long duration" so we know have to assume that the device has been in use for too long.

I will take C over D but I am not sure it is quite clear enough for an official question. Maybe just a little edit here and there on this one!
