binary choice
Two options only
A binary choice is a decision between exactly two options: yes or no, true or false, this or that.
The term appears in logic, computing, and everyday decision-making.
It's not a binary choice—there are other possibilities.
Often used to challenge false dichotomies that oversimplify complex situations.
