As far as I know ergonomics roughly means that the desining of the things in our house/working place to work more comfortably and quickly. So, If we give A as the answer to this question, doesn't A make the meaning of ergonomics narrow?

Why not B?

Thanks...

"Possible" would not follow "us." Ergonomics has made us possible makes no sense.

Thanks river...

So, we do say: With (MAKE + somebody + adjective) structure, we can not use all adjectives?
