What study system works best for the EA exam when I need to turn review materials into passing performance quickly?

A real Reddit thread titled 'Erroneous IRS CP59 (and CP14 and CP30) — Notices requesting 2024 Form 1040 return and payment of taxes for second taxpayer listed on jointly filed return' raised an EA exam or tax-practice issue that deserves a clearer framework than a typical forum reply. I want the exam-ready or practice-ready version using the actual source signal rather than generic advice.
