I'm with Dannie on this one. Let's just throw caution to the wind and let the positive risks take over. What could possibly go wrong? Totally kidding, Option B is the way to go.

Ah, the age-old debate of positive versus negative risks. I say we just flip a coin and see what happens! Kidding, of course. Option B is the way to go.

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. Creating a separate project just for positive risks seems a bit overkill. Wouldn't it be simpler to prioritize them within the existing risk management process?

I agree with Lilli. Separating positive and negative risks into different stakeholder groups or projects could create more complexity than necessary.

Option B seems like the logical choice. We need to analyze both positive and negative risks and add them to the risk register to manage them effectively.
