One of the pros for MLA format is the fact that it is very organized if done correctly. Every necessary bit of information is located at the top of an essay and it allows for it to be an easy read. MLA format can help people who have organizational problems by setting a standard for writing. Another pro for this format is that most people learn MLA and it can be used universally without causing confusion.
There are also quite a bit of flaws with MLA in my opinion. I find it kind of annoying to follow some of the specific guidelines. Not only that, but it is also very annoying when the rules change and you have to adjust to the new guidelines.
I still think MLA is still a great tool, however, and it should be continued to be used despite its small flaws.
I think this is what I went through when I was first introduced to MLA format haha:
