Full Explanation
## Why B is Correct A low trigger rate (0.3%) for 'Request Office Supply' can have multiple root causes: 1. Poor trigger phrases — users phrase requests differently than the topic expects 2. Low discoverability — users don't know this capability exists in the agent 3. Genuinely low demand — the use case is truly rare
The correct response is to investigate (review trigger phrases, check for unmatched utterances that might have been trying to trigger this topic, survey users) before making a decision. If the topic is needed but undiscovered, improve trigger phrases and add the topic to the agent's welcome message. Only consider removing the topic if investigation confirms genuine low demand.
## Why the Distractors Are Wrong A (Delete the topic): Deleting without investigation risks removing a topic that users need but simply can't find. Low trigger rate does not equal low value.
C (Add more trigger phrases to IT Password Reset): This topic already has 42% trigger rate — the highest in the agent. Adding more trigger phrases could cause it to capture unintended intents from other topics.
D (Merge the two topics): Merging a supply request topic with a password reset topic makes no logical sense. They serve completely different user needs and should never be combined.
## Exam Tip Analytics-driven optimization: high trigger rate + low CSAT = fix the topic content. Low trigger rate = investigate discoverability. High trigger rate + high CSAT = leave it alone. Data informs decisions but doesn't make them automatically.
