Which version of this answer is strongest? The story: You found a data privacy risk outside your team and took action to fix it. Options: "I noticed a data privacy risk in another team's system during a review. I escalated it to their manager. They fixed it and the risk was mitigated." "We found a privacy risk together and discussed it as a team. We decided on a fix and implemented it. The risk was reduced." "I discovered a privacy risk outside my team and took ownership to investigate. I identified the root cause and coordinated with the other team to deploy a fix. The risk dropped by 90%." "During a routine audit, I spotted a privacy risk beyond my scope. I worked with the other team to understand and fix it. The issue was resolved quickly."

Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Identify scope boundary -- 'outside my team' in C and D; A and B lack clear boundary.
  2. Step 2: Check ownership -- C uses 'I' throughout; B and A use 'we' or manager-led.
  3. Step 3: Look for metric -- only C quantifies impact with 'risk dropped by 90%'.
  4. Step 4: Therefore, C is strongest by signal framework.
Quick Trick: Scope + I + metric = strongest answer.
