"I shall note for the record - because I do sometimes feel that my world is probably being misunderstood, in much the same way that I might be misunderstanding, oh, say, your own - that we actually make a big deal about not being a monoculture which is why I'm sensitive about it, we know that's a risk and steer around it.  I mention this now because if there was a non-defecting property of people that they felt socially pressured to hide, even if just to avoid puzzled questions, our monoculture alarms would be blaring loud warnings.  Alex could say 'I'm nondynamic', add the syllables farsheth, and nobody would bug him about it even if they had no idea at all what he meant.  This is one of the many ways that we are very very protective of individual diversity."
