The term “pros and cons” is a shorthand way of referring to the positive and negative aspects of a situation, decision, or issue. “Pros” stands for “prositive” aspects (the advantages or benefits), while “cons” stands for “cons” (the disadvantages or drawbacks).
Here’s a breakdown:
- Pros: Positive aspects, benefits, advantages.
- Cons: Negative aspects, drawbacks, disadvantages.
Using this framework helps in evaluating options by considering both sides before making a decision.
