Why might smoothing/accommodating not resolve the conflict?

It creates a competitive environment
It does not address the underlying issues
It focuses too much on team building
It requires too much time

The correct answer is: It does not address the underlying issues

By smoothing or accommodating, the conflicting parties may temporarily avoid confrontation, but the underlying issues causing the conflict are not addressed and therefore, the conflict may remain unresolved. Therefore, option B is the correct answer. Option A and C may create a more harmonious environment, but they do not necessarily address the root cause of the conflict. Option D is not directly related as smoothing/accommodating does not necessarily require a significant amount of time.
