I picked C because it seemed like a stronger response to casting doubt but I feel E could be a trap answer I'd pick in a rush. What is the reasoning behind WHY E is incorrect?

@Meredith,
Let's look at (E).
(E) says, "The first printed books published after the invention of
the printing press would have been useless to illiterate people, since
the books had virtually no illustrations."
The problem with (E) is that it does not tell us whether or not there
was an increase in the number of illiterate people. Thus, we can get
rid of it, as it doesn't cast doubt on the argument.
Does that make sense? Let us know if you have any other questions!
