Could you please elaborate on this answer or give a short explanation?
Because for me it is rather unclear. Thanks in advance.

The option you've quoted is not marked as a right answer. Option 5, "Constructor for Inner is protected." is marked as the right answer. A detailed explanation is already provided.

HTH,
