What do you see as the pros and cons of high tension strings?

For me, higher tension is all pros and no cons. I find that for fingerpicking, especially higher up the neck, I get more clarity and sustain from them. For some, higher tension strings can be harder to fret (and especially to barre) - I haven't had any problems with this, but others who have played my ukes have remarked that they found my strings of choice to hurt their hands.
