First-Mover Advantages Are Unlikely to Be Present in Which One

First-mover advantages are unlikely to be present in which one of the following instances?

A) when pioneering helps build a firm's image and reputation with buyers
B) when rapid market evolution (due to fast-paced changes in technology or buyer preferences) presents opportunities to leapfrog a first-mover's products with more attractive next-version products
C) when early commitments to new technologies, new-style components, new or emerging distribution channels, and so on, can produce an absolute cost advantage over rivals
D) when moving first can constitute a preemptive strike, making imitation extra hard or unlikely
E) when first-time customers remain strongly loyal to pioneering firms in making repeat purchases
