@DavidHundeyin One of the major reasons why they prevented DR Congo supporters from attending the world Cup was to prevent the "Lumumba" guy from getting the attention of the whole world, and people eventually asking "Who is Lumumba?"

Youβre totally missing the plot...
Yes, cholecalciferol is cholecalciferol.
Nobody serious is arguing the spelling of the molecule.
The point is that sunlight is not just a molecule delivery system.
The body making D3 through skin, cholesterol and UV exposure happens inside a larger biological event: light timing, circadian rhythm, skin signalling, nitric oxide, sulfation, cholesterol metabolism, immune signalling, mood, sleep and probably layers we still barely understand.
What your reductionist zoom-in also misses is that cholecalciferol is only one marker, and a fairly crude proxy at that.
Vitamin D biology involves more than 25 metabolites and a cascade of downstream functions and signalling pathways.
Measuring or supplementing one molecule does not capture the full physiological picture.
Sure a capsule can give you "cholecalciferol".
It cannot recreate the sun.
That is the reductionist mistake.
Same molecule does not mean same biological context.
Same marker moved does not mean the same biological event happened.
Moving one proxy marker does not mean you have replicated the entire system that produced it.
This is exactly how modern health shrinks nature into a product and then acts like the product replaced nature.
It didnβt.
It moved one piece of the system...

@GirlsChase "The average very active dater goes on 75 first dates but only sleeps with 4 men.
Compare that to the average infrequent dater: she goes on just 8 first dates, yet sleeps with 5 men."
Your chance of sex-closing is 62.5% with a passive girl, and 5.3% with an active girl.
