Weaken
Stockholders have expressed concerns about the GreenLeaf Company, a prominent furniture manufacturer, because most of GreenLeaf's furniture is produced in Country Y using local timber, where illegal logging is prevalent. To address these concerns, GreenLeaf has implemented a certification program for lumber suppliers. They have employed a team of auditors and forestry experts who examine the documentation of timber sources in Country Y to confirm their legal status, conduct unannounced inspections of suppliers to verify records, and certify those that meet legal standards. GreenLeaf exclusively sources timber from these certified suppliers. Therefore, GreenLeaf's assertion that its timber supply from Country Y is legally sourced is supported.
Which of the following, if true, would most weaken the support for GreenLeaf's assertion?
