Critical Reasoning

At present the Hollywood Restaurant has only standard-height tables. However, many customers come to
watch the celebrities who frequent the Hollywood, and they would prefer tall tables with stools because such seating would afford a better view of the celebrities. Moreover, diners seated on stools typically do not stay as long as diners seated at standard-height tables. Therefore, if the Hollywood replaced some of its seating with high tables and stools, its profits would increase.

The argument is vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that it gives reason to believe that it is likely that
A. some celebrities come to the Hollywood to be seen, and so might choose to sit at the tall tables if they were available
B. the price of meals ordered by celebrities dining at the Hollywood compensates for the longer time, if any, they spend lingering over their meals
C. a customer of the Hollywood who would choose to sit at a tall table would be an exception to the generalization about lingering
D. a restaurant's customers who spend less time at their meals typically order less expensive meals than those who remain at their meals longer
E. with enough tall tables to accommodate all the Hollywood's customers interested in such seating, there would be no view except of other tall tables

IMO C , what is OA?

My Choice is also C.

I used process of elimination. To be frank, the meaning of C is not clear to me but all other options except C are perfectly wrong. My conclusion is : A, B,D, & E are wrong so C may be right.

Reasoning: more & more customers would come to watch the celebrities who frequent the hollywood. In turn, more sale & more profit.Basically, We have to weaken the argument.

A- wrong. It tells about seating of celebrities not customers
B-wrong. Price of meal is nowhere mentioned in the stem. Out of scope
D-wrong. We are not sure about the customers that what they will order. It may be cheap or expensive.
E-wrong. Junk. Irrelevant

I will try to find out why C is correct & let you know.

My thought - its mentioned that diners on the tall tables will not sit for a longer time, but when customers sit on those chairs they will definitely linger over the food just to look at the celebrities for a longer time. Am I right?

@amar and siva

Thanx guys...i could also zero on C by elimination. The OA is C. But my situation is similar to yours.
I am not able to justify my answer.

Plz help.

Hope it makes sense.
