In the Battle of Bunker Hill, why were the Patriots ordered," Don't fire untill you see the whites of their eyes"?

A- They could not see in the dark
B- British soldiers were wearing camo
C- Patriot soldiers were low on ammunition
D- British soldiers had a better position

Option C is the correct option as according to the sources it was said because Patriots had little powder and didn't wanted to waste it if they were not sure that they will hit the target.

All other options are therefore false. It was a daylight, so it could be dark. British soldiers were in their usual red uniforms, and position of Patriots was even better.
