Challenge 1: Moving an Icon and Wordmark Together While Keeping Both Editable — Solution Walkthrough

The answer:

Grouping the icon and wordmark is the right approach. Per this
chapter's own material, grouping bundles several separate objects so
they can be selected, moved, scaled, or rotated together as a single
unit, without merging their underlying paths the way Chapter 6's
Pathfinder operations do.

Why this preserves individual editability:

Grouping is purely an organizational convenience, not a destructive
combination. After ungrouping, the icon and wordmark remain exactly as
editable individually as they were before being grouped — nothing
about their underlying paths, anchor points, or appearance was
altered by the grouping itself.

Why this is a better fit than a layer here:

Per this chapter's own warning box, layers exist for genuinely
separate composition parts with independent show/hide/lock control,
while groups are meant for objects that should move and scale
together. Since the icon and wordmark need to move as one unit during
design (a group's actual purpose) rather than needing independent
visibility control (a layer's actual purpose), grouping is the correct
tool for this specific need.

WHY THIS WORKS AS AN ANSWER
------------------------------
This exercise checks that "move together, stay individually editable"
is correctly matched to grouping rather than layering or a destructive
Pathfinder operation.
