I'm going with Option B. Unclear requirements are a recipe for confusion and chaos during Sprint Planning.

Option C is a bit of a joke, right? 'Nothing in particular' happening when the backlog is unclear? That's a surefire way to end up in a dumpster fire.

Option E? Really? Cancelling the meeting and doing refinement first? That's like trying to fix a flat tire before you've even started driving.
