What is the difference between the answer C and D?
I chose D because of the lines of 54---.
Regardless of the fact that inferential errors are known to judges, they employ only a limited and primitive concept of jury inferential error.

I have never struggled this much with RC... I feel like I should start studying all over again how to attack RC...

Hello,

Answer D, "pessimistic about their willingness to make significant changes in trial procedure", is unwarranted, since it insults judges by saying they're unwilling to do the right thing. That's different from C, which seems to say they **don't always know** what the right thing is to do.
Also, "trial procedure" may not be the same as taking psychological research into account.
