Allowing various other arrangements of formulations of XX and XY to be considered traditional male or traditional female would significantly reduce the meaning of the words male and female. If we are not going to do away with separate categories and awards for each, then we should not allow these in.

Explainable, and yet unlikely when you add them all up, "accidents" and misfortunes will continue until the project is shelved. It's the only way the universe can protect itself from unavoidable back-to-the-past influences that will cause it to re-set due to temporal anomalies. These incidents will gradually become more unlikely from an individual perspective.

I think it's safe to say that there is still quite a bit that scientists do not know about particle physics. Assuming one can quantify the odds, what is the highest probability of a total "end of the world" scenario that you are willing to accept? One in a billion, in a million, in 100,000? Who decides on behalf of the world? Are you willing to accept more likely odds if you make your living from studying those collisions?
