A 12% difference in the genome is huge when it comes to how the genes are expressed. Except that it's 1.2 percent. Humans and chimps are 98.8 percent indentical...

Except that it's 1.2 percent. And even among that 1.2 percent, a lot of the differences are probably neutral.

Except that it's 1.2 percent [not 12%]. Humans and chimps are 98.8 percent indentical... Well, you know ... in for a dime, in for a dollar. (It's rare when I can say that where it's so precisely applicable.)
