正しい言い方

• 这场争论的实质无非是各方为了维护自身利益而采取的策略性表态，并非真正意义上的原则分歧。(The substance of this dispute is nothing more than strategic posturing by each party to protect its own interests — not a genuine disagreement over principles.)
• 她坚持的立场无非是希望获得应有的尊重，而这在任何正常的职场关系中都是最基本的要求，本不应引起如此激烈的争议。(The position she insists on is simply a desire for the respect she deserves — a most basic requirement in any normal professional relationship, which should never have triggered such fierce controversy.)

避ける言い方

• 无非 in questions or negative sentences — it is declarative and affirmative; also avoid using 无非 when the scope genuinely includes multiple complex factors rather than a single reducible core
