A question says the Third Estate had both poor and rich. What conclusion follows?

Its grievances were not all identical

The Third Estate was not a single, uniform group. It included very poor peasants and workers, but also prosperous merchants, professionals, and some wealthy members of the middle class. Because their occupations, wealth, and daily experiences differed, they did not all face exactly the same problems or demand precisely the same reforms.

They could share opposition to the privileges of the clergy and nobility, and many objected to unequal taxation, but the intensity and form of their grievances could vary. The statement therefore supports the conclusion that their grievances were not identical. The Third Estate was not tax-free, was not the noble order, and was not limited to clergy. Hence, option A is correct.
