So much focus on all the potential problems, ignoring all the potential benefits. This is why the world is the way it is.

How much of the potential benefits were discussed during the Brexit campaign? I thought the campaign mainly focused on the (perceived) negatives of the current arrangement?

All the potential benefits are blatant lies.

Brexit doesn't give £350m to the NHS. Brexit doesn't get us out of ECHR (and that wouldn't be a benefit anyway, since ECHR agrees with UK on over 99% of cases). Brexit doesn't give us control over our spending. Brexit doesn't give us control over immigration.
