In the play Romeo and Juliet, Romeo compares Juliet to the sun in the famous line "But soft, what light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun." This comparison is a point, not an explanation. A point is a single idea or statement, while an explanation provides reasons or evidence to support a point. In this case, Romeo is simply stating that Juliet is the sun, he is not providing any reasons or evidence to support this claim.
