Hey Dave,

The answer it's looking for is typographic scale. It's only mentioned for a couple seconds at the very end of this video.

OMG! ... Ok ... I went back and re-listened and re-read the transcript. I see it now. I wonder if I am the only one who found this question a misleading. But it is good I have another phrase locked in now. Thanks so much.

Thanks for this. I also found the wording of the question ambiguous.

I also struggled to find the answer. But now that you say it, I remember it being mentioned! Thanks.
