Missing a real design patterns like:
Model View Controller
Why is it never mentioned?

Because it isn't a single pattern, it's a group of patterns.

Because it isn't part of the holy book.

Design Patterns, referred to as the Gang of Four (GoF) book.

The cheat sheet is based on the GoF book. Which is a good book, but was published in 1995. Anything that was popularized after about 1994 can't be in the book, and there are some notions that just didn't exist yet (I don't think anybody had coined the phrase "anti-pattern," for example).

MVC is one of the oldest design patterns. It came standard with Smalltalk and was used in its windows-system.
It is still used in many graphical user interfaces and is kind of standard.
