GMAT&LAST-TestIII-Q16

A violin constructed to have improved sound would sound different from the best-sounding existing violins.

To professional violinists, a violin that sounds different from the best-sounding existing violins sounds less like a violin and therefore worse than the best-sounding existing violins.

Professional violinists are the only accepted judges of the sound quality of violins.

Would be the best supported by those statements?

(A) Only amateur violinists should be asked to judge the sound quality of newly constructed violins.

(B) Professional violinists supervise the construction of violins.

(C) The best-sounding existing violins have been in existence fro several centuries.

(D) It is currently impossible to construct a violin that the only accepted judges will evaluate as having improved sound.

(E) It is possible to construct a violin that sounds better than the best-sounding existing violins to everyone but professional violinists.

The answer to this question is D. I do not agree with any of the choices. Can anybody share your thoughts? And if possible, what kind of ability is measured and how to solve question like this.

Thanks.
