NMC Sample LAB - BGP Sync and OSPF

After reading many posts in the archives, I came across this scenario.

In order to satisfy a requirement in this lab, you need to leave
synchronization turned on in an iBGP environment and pass the
announcement to a route reflector client. OSPF has the IGP route, route
is in the routing table, yet BGP seems to think the route is not
synchronized.

Based upon a few posts, I see that this is either intentionally or
unintentionally broken in IOS (proof below).

My questions are  is it, in fact, broken? If so, why is it even on
this lab?

Anyone else try this sample lab and run into this?

NMC practice lab, section 8

Thanks,
