Why use Managed Instance? No mention about migrating on-prem SQL Server to Azure SQL Server

Sharded is not applicable to Managed Instances as clearly stated in the MS documentation below. I think it can be done in MI indirectly via linked servers but your costs go up therefore making the Azure SQL DB the more cost-effective option. The answer should be D. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-sql/database/elastic-scale-shard-map-management

The text is "Sharded" not "shared".n If the text is shared then you are right. But as per the text, correct answer is D.
