B) The paradox implies that pairwise voting sometimes (but not always) produces transitive preferences, and the voting by Henry, Diane, and Linda does produce transitive preferences.
C) The paradox implies that pairwise voting sometimes (but not always) fails to produce transitive preferences, and the voting by Henry, Diane, and Linda fails to produce transitive preferences.
D) The paradox does not apply to the case at hand, because Henry's preferences are not individually transitive.
