iOS iOS Design Patterns MVC Review: Beyond MVC

Why is the answer to this question "True"?

In the video with the Pong example, Bjorn says this about the use of MVC to implement Pong: "Insisting on a separation between model and view in this case leads to dangerous redundancy."

As we know, redundancy is NOT a good thing in software development (another quiz question), yet the answer to the question of whether or not MVC is the best design pattern to use for implementing Pong is True. Shouldn't the answer be "False" because of said redundancy?

You're correct, MVC is not the best design pattern for Pong. If the course indicates otherwise, it needs to be fixed. I'll look into it.

I took the quiz and the answer accepted for: "MVC is the proper choice of design pattern if you’re implementing pong" is "False"

looks like it's fixed
