Comment on LFS258 8.15.c knowledge check 8.3

The question (which service types spread the packets among Pods in a deployment automatically?) and the possible answers in my view are misleading and incorrect.
The Kubernetes Service regardless of type will act as a load balancer and spread the load among the Pods (ep list), for example for iptables the backend pod will be selected based on SessionAffinity or randomly.
The suggested service type of Load Balancer will load balance across the worker nodes and not directly to the Pods .

Thanks for the reply.
The knowledge question 8.3 is - "Which of the following service types spreads packets among Pods in a deployment automatically?". The first two possible answers are:
1. NodePort
2. LoadBalancer

My understanding is that both of the above types will "spread the load" among the relevant Pods (specified in the endpoints list).
In that case the knowledge question should allow for both answers to be selected. Currently only one answer can be selected (radio button).

Even if both can be selected now, still the only Accepted is LoadBalancer which also leads me to question is it really like that ?

Also the lesson number has changed it's 09. SERVICES
