I have a bias towards the idea that we are very different, and it really depends on many unknown factors that apply only to one specific individual.

I also have that gut feeling, mind the pun. It stands to reason to me that since metabolism is incredibly complex, any slight variation in any of the parameters can lead to significant differences observed at an overall operational level. It's also very obvious people are reporting a wide range of experiences for the same activity

We're not _that_ different. And a lot _is_ known. There isn't anyone on earth with incurable obesity.
