1. Description of the Bug:
In the solution for the exercise, there's a few options listed as alternatives to the descendant combinator. It's' basically a mix-and-match of classes and type selectors. But there's an option that isn't actually a descendant combinator, but a child combinator. This is the div > p option. According to MDN, it is not a descendant combinator, and it actually enforces stricter inheritance between parent and child element relationships.
2. How To Reproduce:
Look through the foundations/05-descendant-combinator/solution/solution.css, and compare with https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Child_combinator and https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Descendant_combinator.
3. Expected Behavior:
For either the solution not to include the child combinator itself as an alternative descendant combinator, or to possibly include another link in the corresponding TOP page, this being Intro to CSS, as an Additional Resource to know more about other combinators, considering the lesson itself does mention their existence but doesn't go into any further details.
