Clarissa: The natural sciences would not have made such progress but for the power of mathematics. No observation is worth serious attention unless it is stated precisely in quantitative terms. Myungsook: I disagree. Converting observations into numbers is the hardest and last task; it can be done only when you have thoroughly explored the observations themselves. Clarissa and Myungsook's statements provide the most support for claiming that they disagree about whether
A: successfully doing natural science demands careful consideration of observations not stated precisely in quantitative terms
B: not all observations can be stated precisely in quantitative terms
C: useful scientific theories require the application of mathematics
D: mathematics has been a highly significant factor in the advance of the natural sciences
