That sounds much more likely. Thank you.

Cousins, definitely.
Not twins. Identical twins share the exact same genes, fraternal twins don’t. Either way, they share the same birth mother.
Not brothers, either, unless one of 'em gets adopted by the other mother.
By their logic, they could say they are fathers & mothers of both children…
And wouldn’t that open a can o’ worms.

So to summarise: not genetically identical, not twins, and not brothers…

No, but given their close ages and genetic makeup they are essentially medically indistinguishable from fraternal twins.

That’s reason enough in itself to promote one of them.

Thanks to your Terminator 2 screenshot, I realized that the twins playing the guard are the same twins in Gremlins 2. There’s probably something synchromystic about twins appearing in two sequels in two adjacent years.

Er, yes we do—what we don’t do is get exactly 25% from each grandparent
It’s analogous to how if we shuffle two half-decks of cards together and cut the combined deck in half, we always get exactly half of the cards (by definition) but we can get more or less than a quarter each of the original decks

Not exactly. Everyone gets more than 50% from their mother & less than 50% from their father. You only get mitochondrial dna from your mother.
Some people have some degree of trisomy’s and often the second copy is inactivated to some degree. Translocations occur. Transpositions. Inversions.
It used to be assumed that mosaicism was rare. Now the thinking is that most people have some small degree of it. There are genetic mutations in most everyone, including identical twins.
I’m sure there’s other things that don’t come to mind immediately.

Damn. It’s too bad that they didn’t each have twins and when those twins grew up they could marry twins.

It’s not too late! They can keep trying.
I wonder if there’s a “Twinder” dating app
