Exercise 1: The Second Instance of the Combining Pattern — Possible Solution
====================================================================

THE FIRST INSTANCE, FROM CHAPTER 2
------------------------------
Per this chapter, Chapter 2 showed Mission Control folding two separate Windows 11 features - Snap Layouts (window arrangement) and Task View (virtual desktops) - into one single tool reached with one gesture, rather than keeping them as two separate dedicated features the way Windows 11 does.

THE SPECIFIC PATTERN BOTH INSTANCES SHARE
------------------------------
In both cases, a job Windows 11 splits across two separate, dedicated tools/features turns out to live inside one macOS application instead, organized as different views or tabs within that single tool rather than as separate standalone programs. Mission Control combines Snap Layouts + Task View into one gesture-triggered view; Activity Monitor combines Task Manager + Resource Monitor into one application's own five tabs (CPU, Memory, Energy, Disk, Network). The underlying pattern is the same: macOS tends toward fewer, multi-purpose tools where Windows 11 tends toward more numerous, single-purpose ones.

WHY THIS WORKS AS AN ANSWER
------------------------------
It correctly names Mission Control (combining Snap Layouts and Task View) as the first instance from Chapter 2, and correctly identifies the shared underlying pattern - one macOS tool absorbing what Windows 11 keeps as two separate dedicated tools - as what makes both instances the "same pattern" rather than two unrelated coincidences.
