The benefits are assuming far too much and on top of that the fact it is capped at 24 hours is detrimental to Pro's notion (not helpful).
Pro is arguing that the experience would increase empathy for one another's scenario but it has never been proven by Pro who this empathy benefits, since conversely it means the other will feel less proud and amazing for being who they originally were since they are learning to appreciate the new body's role in the world and way of living.
Pro's case entirely relies on the notion that the severe trauma and panic that is induced during the entire 24 hours that follow (as no one is reasonably going to 'get over' the fact that they're trapped inside someone else's body within only 1 day) is somehow going to be worth it because they will have begun to know what the other's life is like. The truth is they won't know what the other's life is like in that little time, it would take weeks of adapting and discovering secrets and ways of behaving and acting that the other person had to even then know what relationships they had or not. Let's say they are swapped with someone who is cheating on their lover and whose best friend is a mafia enforcer, how on Earth are they going to unlock these secrets or react sufficiently to the shocking texts and/or in-person conversations that will ensue to then empathise with the other person for the secrets they keep? In fact, this experience could do the opposite of increasing empathy, it could lead to both or one of the two severely loathing the other for the secrets they hold and hypocritical way they lead their life.
The resentment both could hold towards the other and trauma of the experience making them have a permanent phobia of randomly swapping bodies with someone else at any given time will lead to them having symptoms of both
PTSD and
paranoid schizophrenia that will scar them for life and while they will both have newfound empathy for the other's trauma and paranoia, that is hardly a net-benefit.
This doesn't even begin to explore how severely bad this experience can be, linked to the secrets. If the other has a job interview, a big day at work, an arrangement with criminals that they owe money to or basically anything that requires pre-knowledge of who they used to be before it can brutally affect the person inhabiting their body who can get beaten up, killed or at the very least doom the person who returns to the body in 24 hours based on foolish decisions made due to a lack of necessary information and knowledge to imitate the other person's accent and mannerisms.
Generalization from fictional evidence is a logical fallacy.

Somehow, Mitsuha managed
Except for the part where they both get in trouble for not showing up to work.
Oh yes. If I swap bodies with Trump I will probably even come up with better solutions than him.
hey. What's your thought on this?
