try grafting on an additional persons circulatory system to yours.  see if your heart can handle the extra load.  it can't as it is in equilibrium and its capacity is fine tuned for your body only.
Actually (though I don't know if anyone has ever done this on a human), this works fine in mice.  Look up 'parabiosis'.

Conjoined (that's conjoined, not coinjoined Wink)  twins are identical twins[1] joined in utero. A rare phenomenon, the occurrence is estimated to range from 1 in 49,000 births to 1 in 189,000 births, with a somewhat higher incidence in Southwest Asia, Africa and Brazil.[2] Approximately half are stillborn, and a smaller fraction of pairs born alive have abnormalities incompatible with life.
Thoraco-omphalopagus (28% of cases):[6] Two bodies fused from the upper chest to the lower chest. These twins usually share a heart, and may also share the liver or part of the digestive system.[7]

Another fascinating and unusual condition is 'tetragametic chimerism'.  Basically, two fraternal twins so intermixed that they appear one person and the condition often goes undetected (though it is extremely rare anyway.)

The interesting thing is that if you take a tissue sample you never know what you'll get.  Different systems do tend to be from one cell line or the other.  So, the blood may be predominantly of one DNA while the muscle tissue from another.

I suggest that Bitcoin is like that.  A given Bitcoiner may have diametrically opposed views from another and it is folly to infer the disposition and philosophies of one Bitcoiner by analyzing those of another.  Of course Bitcoin is hardly alone in displaying this feature.
