Pros

  • lugano over como if you want the swiss experience, como is beautiful but you're going to switzerland so commit to it.
  • Instead of Como you should visit Lugano! same route, less people.
  • Also, if what you’re really after is Alpine scenery, you might actually enjoy stopping in Lugano or Bellinzona on the way instead of going all the way to Zurich. You’ll see more mountains and spend less time on the train.
  • I think you will love Milano plus Como Lake in Italy and maybe Lugano in Switzerland that is not so far. Then move to Venice or Florence by train, beautiful and very safe cities
  • If you can extend your trip I’d go from there to Lugano for a couple days and then fly out of Milan (1 hr from Lugano)

Cons

  • If going to Como I'm gonna go to Lugano. I've spent some time trying to organise all 3 lakes + Lugano but I'm worried it'll be too packed for 2 full days.
