> "there are few options"

I'm curious about your phrasing. In idiomatic English, this says "there are _not many_ options", IOW options are limited. It emphasizes the constraints. OTOH had you written "there are _a_ few options", it'd emphasize the existence of more than one option, with a positive connotation.

From context I infer you meant the latter, is that right?

Yes sorry. This was a typo.

I meant to write 'a few options'.
