Explanation
In a human-in-the-loop content moderation system, the model's job is to surface suspicious comments for human review. Option D - computing precision and recall on a sample of messages the model flagged - directly measures how well the model performs that job. Precision tells you what fraction of flagged comments are truly inappropriate (i.e., is the model wasting reviewers' time?); recall on the flagged set tells you about the model's confidence distribution. Option C (random 0.1% of all raw messages) is misleading because the vast majority of raw messages are clean - the resulting metrics would reflect the class imbalance, not the model's flagging quality. Option A measures only volume. Option B is a raw count of true positives, not a normalized metric - it doesn't account for the total number of flags or misses.
