Texas Statutes and Rules Pertinent to Life Insurance Only

Under Texas law, why does it matter that an insured's application statements are representations rather than warranties?

Answer and explanation
Answer: B. A warranty must be literally true and any breach defeats the contract. A representation defeats it only if false and material, which protects insureds against innocent or trivial errors.Source: Texas Insurance Code — Tex. Ins. Code ch. 1101, materiality and misrepresentation
