Notice 岂非 in this sentence: 如果只看表面，岂非忽略了问题的根源？
岂非…… means "would that not be" and follows the frame A 岂非 B. Use it when the sentence needs to rhetorically state that A would amount to B. Pay attention to register: many patterns in this group are formal, evaluative, or rhetorical, so they are stronger than everyday words. Do not choose a pattern only because the translation looks close; check whether the sentence is evaluation, sufficiency, inevitability, suggestion, or rhetorical affirmation/denial. Common mistakes include dropping fixed characters such as 于, 是, 不, 能, 非, confusing 岂不是, 岂不, 难道不是, or using a rhetorical pattern in a neutral statement.
