Here is a citation from the FTC itself, published on it website: https://www.ftc.gov/business-guidance/resources/complying-telemarketing-sales-rule
"What if a consumer asks a specific division of a corporation not to call? Does a call from a different division violate the TSR? Distinct corporate divisions generally are considered separate sellers under the TSR."
"If a consumer tells one division of a company not to call again, a distinct corporate division of the same company may make another telemarketing call to that consumer. Nevertheless, a single seller without distinct corporate divisions may not call a consumer who asks not to be called again, even if the seller is offering a different good or service for sale."
This implies that as long as the divisions of the organization are selling similar products or services, if a consumer asks not to be called, that request must apply across the entire organization and its affiliates to respect the consumer's preferences and avoid violating the Do-Not-Call (DNC) rules.
Changing my answer....I'm going with B. The rule states that there needs to be diversity in operational structures, not that it has to be transparent. I think the fact that similar products are sold would trigger this requirement.
In making a determination whether a corporate division is a separate entity for purposes of this rule, sellers must consider "whether there is substantial diversity between the operational structure of the divisions and whether the goods or services sold by the divisions are substantially different from each other."
A or B?

C. When a call is not the result of an error or other unforeseen cause
