It's suitable for most contexts but may sound too casual in very formal situations.	Di solito usato per descrivere azioni, opinioni o decisioni logiche. Evitare in contesti eccessivamente emotivi o quando si discutono opinioni estreme. Typically used to describe actions, opinions, or decisions that are logical. Avoid in overly emotional contexts or when discussing extreme views.
