Each possible behavior/ trait or habit or whatever is realized differently
in each indiviual due to his or hers unique genetic/ memetic isomorphism.
We count the outcomes/ results as ' collective ' configurations/
reproductions/
or whatever.
I agree up to a point that such specifications would not be detected under

We are in that respect full and truly an island... more likely a spit of
land.
