Explanation

As Scrum Teams mature, they are expected to continuously improve their craft and processes. One key indicator of maturity is raising the bar on their Definition of Done - adding more rigorous quality criteria (e.g., automated tests, performance benchmarks, security checks) over time. The other options are incorrect: Sprint Retrospectives have a time-box that does not grow, Sprints remain time-boxed regardless of team maturity, Sprint Reviews remain valuable, and a Scrum Master's coaching role continues even with mature teams.
