If you are in favor of something, you support it or think it is the best choice. It can be used to show preference for one option over another.
用法与细微差别
'In favor' is often followed by 'of' plus a noun or gerund ('in favor of change'). Used in both formal and informal contexts. Don't confuse with 'favorite' (meaning something you like best), which is not a set phrase.
