Science writer: Scientists' astounding success rate with research problems they have been called upon to solve causes the public to believe falsely that science can solve any problem. In fact, the problems scientists are called upon to solve are typically selected by scientists themselves. When the problems are instead selected by politicians or business leaders, their formulation is nevertheless guided by scientists in such a way as to make scientific solutions feasible. Scientists are almost never asked to solve problems that are not subject to such formulation. The science writer's statements, if true, most strongly support which one of the following?
A: Scientists would probably have a lower success rate with research problems if their grounds for selecting such problems were less narrow.
B: The only reason for the astounding success rate of science is that the problems scientists are called upon to solve are usually selected by the scientists themselves.
C: If a problem can be formulated in such a way as to make a scientific solution feasible, scientists will usually be called upon to solve that problem.
D: Most of the problems scientists are called upon to solve are problems that politicians and business leaders want solved, but whose formulation the scientists have helped to guide.
