Option C. Set a policy to break down stories larger than a specified complexity, then adjust the WIP. This aligns with the Agile principle of "Simplicity" and the Kanban practice of "Visualize Workflow." By setting a policy to break down larger stories into smaller ones, the team can reduce variation in cycle time and increase the predictability of their workflow. This approach also enables the team to better manage risk by breaking down complex stories into smaller, more manageable tasks. After establishing the policy, the team can adjust their WIP limits to reflect the new, smaller stories' capacity.
