       If the question had mentioned the "grant access using hierarchy" permission was enabled, then I can see why D was picked as the correct answer. But I believe the correct answer is B as it mentions the Sales Team Public . Would love feedback if you agree. Terrible question...

       D B is incorrect. If a lead is shared with a group in Salesforce and then converted to an account, the group will not automatically retain access to the converted account unless specific sharing rules are set up to explicitly grant them access to the account object after conversion; the sharing settings are not automatically carried over from the lead to the account stage.

    Explanation

    C is correct: Your Salesforce admin can set the organization-wide default access for accounts and opportunities to Private. In that case, if you give team members access to an individual opportunity, those users gain read-only access to accounts on the opportunity. https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.salesteam_def.htm&type=5

Third-party apps with similar features are available in the AppExchange, including Contact Update Request. However, Contact Update Request only sends an email to request contact updates, and does not allow you to accept or reject the new information received by the Contact, which the Salesforce Stay-in-Touch feature allowed for. Other marketing automations tools available from the AppExchange may allow Salesforce users to manage and track additional features.

There's a blogpost (https://clearbit.com/blog/simple-lead-scoring-and-qualification-in-salesforce) about doing it but they're using a bunch of newly created (and probably asynchronously calculated) custom fields.

       to correct the above statement.. seems that we can disable the ACM even with inflight records. But leads to inconsistent data. If there are existing Opportunity, Quote, or other currency-related records that were created or modified while ACM was enabled, the values on those records will remain based on the exchange rates at the time they were created or modified. Disabling ACM will stop Salesforce from applying different exchange rates for records created or updated after the change.
