Well, obviously not everyone. As much as I like the Supernatural EP and like to play around with ideas like this, I don't believe in the supernatural in a computer game. I think you simply underestimate the amount of possible combinations. The base game alone has 63 traits, and most adult sims have 5 of them. If you calculate the number of different possible combinations, not corrected for incompatible traits as I'm not that interested, you get 7,028,847 possible different combinations. And that's simply the traits.
Teens have only four traits and not access to all of them, so the number is somewhat lower, maybe around 100,000, and any hidden traits will skyrocket that number again. Skills, wishes, etc. come on top of that.
Which means the mantra "every sim is unique" is in a way correct, given that reproducing a specific combination - at least as long every combination is allowed - is quite similar to winning in a lottery. Which is obviously also something you can be happy about :smile: .
