The intro says "Aunque, generally translated as although, even if, or despite of". I'm not sure there's any English construction "despite of", I think you may be conflating "despite" with "in spite of". As far as I can think of, these two phrases are used pretty interchangeably in English.

My answer is correct...

The question in the lesson was "Do you have a toaster?" (it did not specify formal or informal 'you'). My answer was Tiene usted and was marked wrong. I think it's correct

Alternative passive with "estar"

In the writing exercise "Everlasting Love in Caazapá" [B2], I used the alternative form for the passive by writing: "Sus aguas están conocidas por todos los lugareños"...[Inma explained this at https://progress.lawlessspanish.com/questions/view/passive-with-estar ] However, I failed to apply the rule later when I answered (and was corrected): "Es como si estas aguas *fuesen* benditas" [< which is wrong]; should be "... estuvieran benditas" … I could of course have got a clue from the use of 'benditas' (the irregular past participle, which is more like an adjective) instead of 'bendecidas'. Perhaps one might also say? - "Es como si estas aguas hubiesen sido bendecidas", although that refers to the distant past: "... had been blessed".
