"There are more positive opinions than negative opinions." According to Oxford dictionary, the pronoun one that is used to avoid repeating a noun is seldom used for uncountable nouns or abstract countable nouns. e.g. 'The Scottish legal system is not the same as the English system' is better than '... as the English one'. I'm trying to avoid repeating "opinions" and not to use 'ones'. 1. There are more positive opinions than negatives. 2. There are more positive opinions than the negatives. 3. There are positive opinions more than negatives 4. There are positive opinions more than the negatives. Which one sounds better or is grammatically correct? Any other way to avoid the repetition while not changing the structure?
