The correct answer should be
B. It requires justices to be appointed rather than elected

This means that you can appoint a judge regardless of their political affiliation and that if you don't choose them they don't run and don't have lobbyists and things like that. They are independent people that get appointed based on merit and not on their affiliation to groups or organizations.
