Joel is listing the advantages of his point of view, which suggests a list of related topics. This is characteristic of a topical-sequence pattern, where the speaker presents multiple related topics in a logical sequence. A problem/solution pattern would describe a problem and then propose a solution, a cause/effect pattern would examine the causes and effects of a situation, and a time-sequence pattern would organize information according to chronological order.
