Thanks for this idea. I have looked at this mechanistically and have not yet considered the effects overall of the ineractions of various genes when they express themselves.
That is: gene a with gene b produces a set of traits. But gene a with gene c will not necessarily give 50% gene a traits. This concept vastly expands the possible results for differences of outcome in the genetic code. You have made my day.

A well-known jazz band leader and performer whose name escapes me [someone on FR probably knows] was asked how he was able to play and compose jazz, it is so complicated.
He said: what could be hard? There are only 12 notes.
