How it's used
Focus on the logical structure of an argument when using this term, as it implies a formal or semi-formal stance rather than just a casual opinion. It is frequently used in academic settings, debates, or professional presentations to highlight a specific pillar of one's reasoning. Unlike general opinions, it requires supporting evidence or a clear line of thought to be valid.

Common mistake
Avoid using this to mean a simple personal preference or feeling, as it specifically refers to a point in a structured argument. Learners often confuse it with 意見, which is a broader term for any kind of opinion or suggestion.
