Flashback data archives retain historical data for the time duration specified using the RETENTION parameter. Historical data can be queried using the Flashback Query AS OF clause. Archived historic data that has aged beyond the specified retention period is automatically purged.

D is the correct based on FDA feature. It means that you can use any flashback query which contains two years of historical information regarding the table that is assigned to this flashback archive. it does NOT purge data files though

I agree with you, it does not purge data files. REF: http://www.dba-oracle.com/t_rman_162_modify_flashback_archive.htm
