study on couples' retirement

[ravi.bamalwa]

A study on couples' retirement transitions found that women who took new jobs after retiring from their primary careers reported high marital satisfaction, more so than those who retired completely.
A. more so than those who retired
B. which was more than if they had retired
C. more than when retiring
D. more than if they were to retire
E. which was more so than those retiring

The OA is A.My confusion is about choice E. Is it incorrect becauase "which" and " so" makes the choice redundant?

Please help.Thanks in advance.

"which" in choice E refers wrongly to "martial satisfaction" instead of "women who took new jobs"
the use of "so" seems redundant.
