Paradiastole, in a trope sense, (from Greek παραδιαστολή from παρά para "next to, alongside", and διαστολή diastole "separation, distinction") is the reframing of a vice as a virtue, often with the use of euphemism, for example, "Yes, I know it does not work all the time, but that is what makes it interesting." It is often used ironically.

It is often used ironically.
Paradiastole has been described as "the rhetorical technique of evaluative redescription — more popularly known as euphemism and dysphemism ― designed to enlarge or reduce the moral significance of something". It can be distinguished from mere euphemism when a contrast is juxtaposed that has an aim to be tangibly optimistic, such as banally referring to manual labour as a "workout". In the popular adage within computer science, "It's not a bug; it's a feature!", the distinction is made both euphemistically and literally, as many features in software originated as bugs.
