It's Rattler's and Eagles all over again, but probably worse. It's not evaporative cooling, it's cluster dissociation with actual differences from the start. The general behavior of each group shifts toward their new means - away from each other.

The best answer is hard. We continue to talk about this in a productive manner until our preferences, behavior, perceptions, and trusts shift.

Some behaviors change. Some interpretations change. Some reactions change.

I don't know that it will make such a big difference. The preferences may start biologically, and are likely reinforced in other parts of our lives regardless. But this could at least improve information and separate real preferences from habitual unexamined behaviors.
