How to express

Hi,
I am currently working on an academic article. I wish to demonstrate two opposite points in a sentence as introduction to a part of the paper. I am from Sweden and one metaphore is that you give roses to a debate you like, and you critises the opposite. I wish to use that thinking in helping the reader. Could an introducing sentence look like this:
"The concept of learning outcomes are both rosed and criticised."

Best regards,

Peber

It's fine if the intended audience understands the reference. I wouldn't have understood it without the explanation, an alternative is to replace "rosed" with "praised".
