If everyone is the same there is no diversity. We want – like – select uniformity in calves, pigs, lambs, even bales of hay. Group competitions such as Get of Sire, exhibitor herd, meat pens reward the ability to get a group of uniform animals. Yet people aren't fitting in those uniform descriptions. All are different. Some are widely different – much as the Highland cow is different from a Simmental and that's different from a Jersey. If everyone has, produces, and does the same thing it'd be boring and not allow for choice.
