The correct answer is A. Models usually do not have exactly the same features as the objects or events that they represent.

This statement reflects a limitation of models, as they are simplifications or representations of real systems and may not capture all the complexities and details of the actual objects or events. The other options highlight advantages of using models rather than limitations.
