I was stuck between A and E for this question, and I ultimately chose the wrong answer, E. After reading it again, however, I can see why A is a much better answer, but I would like it if someone could verify my interpretation as to why E is a worse answer.
E is a worse answer because it does not omit the possibility that accidental air bag inflations still cause many injuries. It is true that they can also prevent injuries, but the fact that they still, equally, can cause many injuries "cancels out" the amount of injuries that they prevent, and thereby does not give any "net" amount of advantage. Answer A is much stronger, simply because it attacks the reasoning in the argument. If the system's failing does not actually increase the number of ways in which it fails, that more definitively attacks the argument.
How is my rationale for ruling out E? Am I missing anything?
