Thirsty Co. is a company that manufacturers high end travel tumbler cups. One day, at Thirsty Co’s manufacturing plant, a critical piece of machinery used to mold the plastic of the tumbler cups catches fire; destroying the machine in the process. Thirsty Co. reaches out to the manufacturer of this critical piece of machinery, and asks for a new one to be delivered as soon as possible. Normally, these machines would take weeks to be delivered due to the size. However, Thirsty Co. agrees to pay expedited shipping charges of $10,000 to get the machine delivered as fast as possible. This results in the new machine being delivered in 3 days (as opposed to 3 weeks).  The underlined portion of the above scenario is an example of what?

A product team is documenting requirements for a new online appointment‑scheduling system. During a review session, several issues emerge:-Some use cases describe extremely low‑level UI actions such as “User clicks the Next button.”-Other use cases describe broad business processes that span multiple departments and systems.-A few use cases mix internal system logic (e.g., database updates) with user‑visible behavior.-Several use cases describe goals that are not actually initiated by any external actor. Based on best practices for effective use cases, which of the following problems indicate that the team’s use cases are not written at an appropriate level or scope?
