Not sure if I am interpreting this correctly. I wanted to choose B so badly, however, I was turned away from be since it said that the reasoning "Fails to exclude" when I thought the flaw was that it was actively excluding an alternative explanation. Any ideas what I misinterpreted here? Thanks!

    To actively exclude the possibility that the other one was mislabeled would have actually made this argument correct. The author would have had to actually tell us that it was not the case that the other one was mislabeled, which they did not do here.
