        There are also different types of bilinguals, so depending on the type there will be different advantages and disadvantages

        When would it be a disadvantage?? Knowledge is always an advantage.

        Their own limitations. There have been plenty of studies done on this topic. There are both limitations and benefits.

        Yes, but how can the knowledge of two (or more languages) ever put a person at a disadvantage compared to somebody who only speaks one?

        I personally wasn't. However, I do agree that the bilingual advantage may be more or less significant.

        Being multi linguistic helps. Most of south Indians are multi linguistic.

        I am right handed but I noticed most world leaders are left handed. I don't know why.

        and actually I couldn't read this article if I wasn't bilingual. So yep, think about the potential worldwide readership advantage.

        Because you reading one article (that states that advantages aren't prevalent) doesn't mean it helps bilingual people

        Bilingual people or multilingual are not asking for help.
