(A) Bebop jazz was radically different from the jazz music that preceded it

The Answer is C IMO.
A - The argument doesn’t imply the music was radically different, but seems like a good trap Answer.
B - Neither of the 2 mention music was better.
C - P says they showed distaste by reshaping jazz, but R says they understood the versatility and that’s why they reshaped it. Sounds correct.
D - This wasn’t mentioned in the argument.
E - Irrelevant.
