Your wording here makes me curious: Are you saying the same thing twice here, or are you saying two different things? Does the phrase “X sucks” mean the same thing to you as “X is bad”, or is there a distinction?
Mostly saying the same thing twice, a rhetorical flourish. I guess just really doubling down on how this is not good, in case the reader was like “well this sucks incredibly but maybe there’s a good upside” and then got to the second part and was like “ah no I see now it is genuinely bad”, or vice versa.
