Explanation

Table.Profile is the correct Power Query M function because it returns a summary statistics table for each column, including count, null count, distinct count, minimum, maximum, average, and standard deviation. This is the direct way to identify maximum values for all numeric columns in a single step. Table.Max (B) returns a single row from a table based on a key column comparison, not column-level statistics. Table.MaxN (A) returns the top N rows by a key, and Table.Range (C) returns a positional subset of rows - neither provides column-level max statistics.
