Thanks for updating the course! The 2.7 version of this chapter is still quite fresh in my mind. I have to admit, it’s worth to watch again in the 2.8 version as there are new tricks and tips I didn’t discover myself when was trying to do 2.7 in 2.8. But there is one thing I was missing. And that was a very striking Ben’s quote on Bezier curves that is engraved in my mind. I found it beautiful and well explained. I decided to put it here, so it’s not get lost. 
Ben’s quote on Bezier curves from the 2.7 version of the course:
"We want as few points as possible in a Bezier curve to keep it as simple as possible. Every point you add to the curve introduces complexity and takes away from the mathematical purity and elegance of that curve. "
