Marilyn Manson/Vera Farmiga

As fate would have it, the genotype starter kit that the Solaries purchased from the Hermagnav was rather second rate.  The Solaries had been in a bit of a bind financially.   Kits with much more diversity were commonly available throughout the galaxy, but they came with a bit of a price--even for such an ancient species as the Solaries.   So the Solaries settled on a rather out of date starter kit to seed a new species on the third planet of the backwater star known as Sol.

Make no mistake, the genotype kit the Solaries used on Sol was still more than functional.   But without the upgrades featured in the new kits, the facial genotype protocol was rather limited.  In short, these humans, as they came to be know by the Solaries, were created with similar faces.  There were only so many permutations and combinations available for faces available for their creators with the outdated software. For example, the human female actress named Vera Farmiga was created with facial imprint software version 65.34B2:

Vera would surely be shocked to find out she was created with a virtually identical facial imprint software as sported by Marilyn Manson.

Fortunately, though the facial imprint software used was nearly identical, the software controlling the higher cognitive functions of these advanced primates was markedly different.

So the next time you visit as busy airport, or your favorite sporting event and encounter a large group of people and you see someone you think you know only to find out on closer inspection that the person is not the person you know, ask your nearest Solaries when they are going to upgrade the species?  Of course, when the Solaries get the money for the upgrade, hopefully they will spend it on the religion upgrade--before our friends in the Middle East decide to incinerate the Solaries' science project.
