That's not how I'm seeing it. The controller has data, some of which might be from the model. The view shouldn't care whether the data came from a model or not. It would be coupling if the view did care.

The view asks the controller for data. The controller might delegate that question to the model. The view shouldn't care whether the data was delegated or not; it should just get a response from the controller.

Seems like textbook object-oriented design. Otherwise how will the views update automatically when the models change? The views shouldn't know what models it needs. In fact, it seems they shouldn't know that models are a thing at all. It's just data from the controller.
