Explanation
In SAFe, Kanban teams operate without fixed-length iterations, so they skip time-boxed Scrum ceremonies. However, they still participate in PI Planning (D) and System Demo (C) because these are Agile Release Train (ART)-level events that all teams on the train must attend, regardless of their team-level process.
Iteration Planning (A) and Iteration Retrospective (B) are Scrum-specific ceremonies tied to fixed sprints - since Kanban teams don't work in iterations, these events don't apply to them.
Memory tip: Think of it as two levels - team-level events (Planning, Retro) belong to Scrum teams only, while ART-level events (PI Planning, System Demo) are mandatory for every team on the train, Scrum or Kanban alike.
