求教一道逻辑题，请指点一下，谢谢

The excessive number of safety regulations that the federal government has placed on industry poses more serious hardships for big businesses than for small ones. Since large companies do everything on a more massive scale, they must alter more complex operations and spend much more money to meet governmental requirements.

　　Which of the following, if true, would most weaken the argument above?

　　(A) Small companies are less likely than large companies to have the capital reserves for improvements.

　　(B) The operations of small companies frequently rely on the same technologies as the operations of large companies.

　　(C) Safety regulation codes are uniform, established without reference to size of company.

　　(D) Large companies typically have more of their profits invested in other businesses than do small companies.

　　(E) Large companies are in general more likely than small companies to diversify their markets and products.

我想知道D和E这两个选项为什么不对啊？？

C的话，说安全规则是统一标准，与公司大小无关。如果这样的话，我觉得有点支持的意思，因为大公司面对困难更多的promise是他们规模更大，一旦有operations，他们要花费更多的钱。如果你标准相同，岂不是印证了他的说法，即：scale大，同样的标准，要动刀子的地方也多，于是钱就花的更多了~~~打个比方：新要求规定，一台机床要新装一套保险装置，所有企业都是如此。那对于小公司而言，他可能只有一台机床，那只要花一分钱。但对于同一标准，一个拥有100台机床的大公司，他就要花费100份钱。。。

以上是个人理解~希望大家指正！
