## Long-form headline that frames the central tradeoff

#### [Argument A]

Use this paragraph to explain the first side of the argument. Include one emphasized phrase when a key idea needs extra weight.

Add a second paragraph with supporting evidence, operational detail, or a short example that strengthens the case.

Close the column with the implication. Make the logic clear enough that the reader understands the recommended action.

#### [Argument B]

Use this paragraph to explain the second side of the argument. Highlight the contrasting principle with an emphasized phrase.

Add a second paragraph with supporting detail. This column should feel like a deliberate counterweight to the first column.

Close with the practical takeaway, linking the argument back to the decision the deck is meant to support.
