"in and of itself" is an English expression used when focusing on a thing, phenomenon, or fact itself.
Literally, it means "by itself" or "intrinsically," and it is often used when talking about the subject alone before considering its essential characteristics or context.
For example, it can be used to say that a certain result is not bad "by itself," but may be problematic in the overall context.
In U.S. academic conferences and scholarly discussions, it appears very often when evaluating data or interpreting papers.
