More favourable aspects of university an afterthought in paper's extreme edits (7)
I believe the answer is:
upsides
'more favourable aspects' is the definition.
'upsides' can be an answer for 'aspects' (I have seen 'Positive aspects' mean 'upsides' so perhaps 'aspects' could also mean 'upsides'). I am not certain of the 'more favourable' bit.
'university an afterthought in paper's extreme edits' is the wordplay.
'university' becomes 'U' (abbreviation for university).
'an afterthought' becomes 'ps' (ps stands for postscript).
'in paper's' becomes 'id' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'extreme' suggests removing the centre.
'edits' with its middle removed is 'es'.
'u'+'ps'+'id'+'es'='UPSIDES'
'of' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for upsides that I've seen before include "Level" , "Positive aspects" , "Positive attributes" , "positive features" , "On a par (with); pie suds (anagram)" .)
