B and C are definitely out, obviously. A Hurts a majority of players, where D hurts a minority.

You can please some of the people all of the time, all of the people some of the time, but not all the people all the time.
E) Easy mode w/ Lock, 100% drop + Hard mode w/ No lock, Low drop.

However only able to enter one version of the instance a week. Casuals can enter the easy mode lock/guarantee drop version, but hardcores can spam the hard mode as much as they like.

Granted this will never happen, and would require alot of work and balancing issues...
