Have you went down any internet rabbit holes only to come out with a deep set existential crisis? If so, what are they?

It only seems compelling, there is no base rate of non-similar twins separated at birth. Is this 1 in 2 sets end up like this, every one, 1 in 100,000?

The neuroscience is interesting, but it is not in any way predictive. It is all post-hoc rationalisations of what did happen.

As I said above, I'm an engineer and look at this from a physical sciences point of view. There is no model (as far as I'm aware) that can predict what will happen except in very specific psychological experiments.

Well, you’re an engineer, not a neuroscientist like Robert Sapolsky so his research carries more value than your opinion.
