I agree with Horace. Engaging the stakeholders and providing the sponsor with a thoughtful recommendation is key here. Plus, it's always a good idea to present the risks and benefits - the sponsor probably didn't consider the full impact of these changes.

I think the program manager should also discuss the proposed changes with the stakeholders and project managers before making a decision.

Option B seems like the best approach. Discussing the changes with stakeholders and providing the program sponsor with the best option is more proactive and collaborative than just accepting the changes or waiting for the sponsor to ask again.
