A)Precise pigmentation control decreased✓
B)Tesserae crushing strength diminishes
C)Refractive index of glass reduced
D)Increased annealing cracking probability
💡 Explanation
Hue control degraded because medieval technologies could not maintain precise Ramp-up Pyrolysis cycles, weakening oxide control, therefore vivid consistent blacks and purples appear less homogenous over large areas, rather than causing structural instability, as sintering was the limit.
