- Strong claim that living structure cannot exist without every part being unique.
- Universality claim: uniqueness at every scale is a hallmark of all living systems
- Core assertion that living structure is characterized by total uniqueness of parts.
- The principle that in a living process, every part created must become locally unique, adapted to its specific context within the whole.
- States that genuine uniqueness arises from adapting to real constraints, not from arbitrary variety.
- The core principle that in a living structure each part is adapted to its context and therefore unique, not identical.
- Diagnostic criterion for living structure: absence of thorough uniqueness excludes living character.
