Answer 7

I apologize for the confusion. An ellipsis can have multiple uses, including indicating a pause or omission (Option 1), showing where a thought ends (Option 2), indicating a change in subject (Option 3), or even to correct or delete information (Option 4). Therefore, it is not limited to just one option.
