You gain one dirty pot instead of two, which feels like winning a small lottery. You also get a deeply flavored sauce because the pasta starch emulsifies everything. It’s like the noodles and sauce form a beautiful friendship instead of just sitting next to each other on a plate.

What you lose is control. You can’t taste the sauce separately, you can’t drain the pasta, and if you overshoot the time, you’re having soup. It’s a high-risk, high-reward gamble, like eating the last slice of cake at a party—you might win big, or you might spill it on your shirt.
