Here in NL we have proportional representation, and they just formed a government this week after an election in November, so there's downsides to that too.
Genuine question - if the country can manage without a functioning government for eight months, then is it actually a downside?RizzoTheRat said:

IMO, not much of one Belgium survived without one for nearly 2 years. However both NL and BEL have pretty strong regional/federal governments that can bring in provincial regulations so long as they comply with national law. The problem is that while the system can keep ticking over nothing new can happen, so if you get a big issue like Covid or Ukraine crop up that's outside the normal expectations, they wouldn't have been able to deal with it.
