I heard a phrase 'two faces of the same coin' and I'm wondering what it actually means. Is it just a metaphor or does it have a deeper philosophical implication? I'd like to understand the origin and context of this expression.

When you say that two things are two sides of the same coin, you imply they represent different perspectives on the same issue.

While economic reforms focus on structural changes within an economy, political reforms aim to address governance and power dynamics.
