Bonjour John !
Thank you for this useful remark !
Indeed, you can use "cela ne fait rien" in a more elegant way, however you will not be able to say "cela fait rien" as the omission of "ne" occurs in casual speech, and "cela" is used in elegant speech :)
I've now edited the lesson and questions accordingly!
Merci beaucoup et à bientôt !
