Antanagoge

Balancing an admitted disadvantage with a favourable point.

Explanation

The negative point remains, but its weight is changed by a positive continuation.

Example

The atlas is complex, but that is why it opens unexpected paths.

Counterexample

The atlas is not complex at all.

Effect on thought and perception

Reframes judgment through weighting rather than denial.

Resonance

A burden receives a counterweight without disappearing.
