If I saw the parent of this one close first, I'd know for sure it was (a); if I saw </e> first, I'd know for sure it was (b). To save time, I'd assume (a) and proceed; then if I saw </e>, it would be an error, and I could switch the original one to (b) to fix both errors. If I never saw </e>, then (a) was correct.
