Answer: D
Explanation
Ok, I've figured this one out. The OLD method does require Global Administrator. So, the provided answer is correct. However, the NEW way of doing this require at least Authentication Policy Administrators. "The Authentication methods policy is the recommended way to manage authentication methods, including modern methods like passwordless authentication. Authentication Policy Administrators can edit this policy to enable authentication methods for all users or specific groups." Both scenarios are explained here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/authentication/concept-authentication-methods-manage
