The whole idea of "making one out of many" rubs me the wrong way. If we are asked to give up our unique foibles (religion, ethnic traditions, ability to produce etc.) we no longer come out as a pot of stew with identifiable ingredients of peas, carrots, potatoes and meat. You are asking the chefs to puree the parts and dish out mush.
So you have never worked to accomplish a goal with other people who are not completely of like mind with you about everything? If you have, did you have to give up your unique foibles to accomplish the goal or were you able to keep your self identity and find a way to accommodate the differences in foibles amongst those you were working with to accomplish the goal?
