Ensure that the shorter options are expanded in length to maintain consistency across all choices, preventing them from being obvious giveaways.

I found questions very close to these in the Exam Items:

A team is using GitHub Copilot Individual in their daily development activities. They need to exclude specific files from being used to inform code completion suggestions. How can they achieve this?

Answer: a; b/c are only available in Business or higher; #file is a valid hashtag command, but this is about Code Suggestions and not Chat

Reference: Configuring content exclusions for GitHub Copilot - GitHub Docs

• Upgrade to Copilot Business
• Have a repo administrator configure content exclusions
• Have an organization owner configure content exclusions
• Use the #file Chat variable to exclude the files
• Add a .gitignore file to the repo

AND

2.3.1 Demonstrate how to exclude specific files (application knowledge, not conceptual)
What is the correct way to exclude specific files from being used by GitHub Copilot Business during code suggestions?

Answer: C

A. Modify the .gitignore file to include the specific files
B. Add the specific files to a copilot.ignore file
C. Use the GitHub Copilot settings in the user interface to exclude files
D. Rename the files to include the suffix _no_copilot

Everything looks good, except for question-006.md which I think is closely formatted as what may be in the actual exam.
