Emma, Maya, and Luna are having a debate on how to compare and contrast texts on the same topic. Can you help them out?

Emma suggests ignoring the content and only focusing on the length of the texts.

Maya thinks comparing the font style and color used in the texts is the way to go.

Luna proposes randomly selecting one text and assuming it represents all texts on the topic.

Or, should they identify similarities and differences in their content, structure, and perspective?
