Cloud Kicks (CK) uses Lightning Knowledge and has set up Data Categories. CK uses Data Category
Visibility to control access based on products and geographic location. The admin plans to enable
‘Use standard Salesforce sharing’ in Sharing Settings under Knowledge Settings.
Which consideration should the admin be aware of when making this change?

I think B actually. Data Category Visibility settings can still override default org-wide sharing, right?
C is the main thing here. When you switch to standard sharing, data categories stop controlling who can access articles, and sharing rules take over. I think that's what Salesforce means but happy to be challenged if someone else tested this.
Probably C here. Once you enable standard Salesforce sharing, the article access is managed via record-level sharing rules, not the data categories. Data categories just become a way to organize articles, not gate access. Pretty sure that's how it works but open if anyone sees it differently.
Option C and this always messes with me. Salesforce loves to bury this-once you check "Use standard Salesforce sharing," the Data Categories don’t actually restrict article access anymore, it all goes off record-level sharing. Think C is right but the docs are annoyingly vague about impact.
Had something like this in a mock, it's C.
B is off, C is correct here.
I don’t think B is right. It’s C, once you switch to standard sharing, data categories stop controlling access.
Its C, standard Salesforce sharing takes over and category visibility stops affecting access.
C , pretty sure standard sharing means data categories stop controlling access. Am I reading that right or missing something?
