It's a pretty fascinating result, and it almost seems obvious in hindsight -- a statistical result of entropy which has profound implications for anti-aging research. The biggest takeaway for me is that physically isolated genetic diseases and asymmetries which manifest during an organism's growth may not be contained whatsoever in the organism's zygotes / passed along to its offspring (not that this was an impossible result before, but I suspect there is a higher probability of genetic independence than previously thought.) I would love to see comparisons of the standard deviations of "healthful" individuals to less healthy individuals. I would imagine that some genomes are far better at protecting themselves than others.
