Although means-end analysis was a critical component of GPS, the algorithm was also limited by its inability to deal with certain problem types, such as the Tower of Hanoi puzzle. However, A is a more accurate and comprehensive answer as it identifies a broader limitation of GPS's problem-solving abilities. The fact that GPS was implemented on a computer (C) and did not have face validity (D) are not considered primary limitations of the algorithm.
