The knowledge check on the module "Explain retention in SharePoint Online and OneDrive" is poorly formulated.

Link to module: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/modules/manage-data-retention-microsoft-365/explain-retention-sharepoint-online-onedrive

Question:

How does the retention of OneNote content work in SharePoint and OneDrive?

Correct answer according to the "answer check":

Each page within a section is treated as an individual file under retention policies.

Personally, I consider this answer incorrect as the sections are treated as individual files, not the pages. The pages in the section inherit the retention labels from the sections. Correct would be, according to me, "Each section is treated as an individual file under retention policies. The pages in the section (file) inherit the retention labels from the section they are member of. This ensures that all pages within sections are retained or deleted together. "
