Ben says: "We need to select the team members for the Dragon Owls project. I have identified seven essential skills we need to make this project successful: leadership skills, creative skills, conceptual skills, collaborative skills, technical skills, interpersonal skills, and planning skills. Therefore, we should bring at least seven people on to the team." Which of the following demonstrates flawed reasoning most similar to Ben's reasoning?
A) Madeleine has seven requirements for her next car, but only the cars that have enough room for her musical equipment are worth considering.
B) Noah wishes to visit seven cities during his vacation, but if some of them are close enough he will not need to fly into seven different airports.
C) Simon's cold has seven symptoms, and so he will need to take seven different cold medications to treat his cold.
D) Miriam is considering seven important criteria while selecting colleges, and so each of her top seven choices must be her top choice in exactly one of those seven aspects.
E) Johann is choosing ingredients for a seven-course meal. Since the courses have no ingredients in common, he will need to choose at least seven ingredients.
