• Formal Tone: Creates an objective tone, common in academic or scientific writing (e.g., "The data was analyzed").
• Avoiding Blame: Helps diplomatically omit responsibility (e.g., "Mistakes were made").
• Varied Sentence Structure: Adds variety and prevents repetitive patterns (e.g., "The experiment was designed carefully").
