"If two things are quite equal in all respects as much as can be ascertained by all means possible, quantitatively and qualitatively, it must follow that the one can in all cases and under all circumstances replace the other, and this substitution would not occasion the least recognizable difference."

I do not agree that if two things are alike in all aspects that they have to replace each other and become one. I think that no substitutions should be made. Even if you think that two things are exactly the same there is always that one little flaw that makes the two things different. Therefore nothing can be exactly the same and substitute.

I agree with you. I don't think that any two things were created identical. There has to be some time of difference no matter how minor. I don't believe anything or anybody should be replaced or substituted.
