This is a great list of Pros and Cons of the generations, most of which I am in 100% agreement with. I can't weigh in much on Zoomers because I barely know any, certainly not in enough numbers or well enough to pass a judgement on their collective peer personality.
I wonder - should "conventional" be a CON for the Millennials? I think it can be a PRO. Millennials have established a "basic" mode of being and expression that is acceptable, relieving one of the pressure of crafting some unique persona that stands out, as Gen Xers have felt motivated to do. What good is ever more extreme individual expression if we have so many real-world problems to solve? What help is being a maverick when conformity is actually of benefit? For example, in pandemic response or labor organization, two issues of huge importance to the young adult working population.
