Do you guys get what I mean? Like if some other sperm took my place in the baby making process. Would my body and mind be totally different?

This breaks the whole alternate universe twin thing for me in sci-fi. Literally if you had the same parents and they picked a different day or even millisecond to do the sexy time you would look like a sibling not some exact twin of yourself. Unless the split in timelines happened after you were born there would be a totally different person in place of you even if that person had the same two parents.

This effect actually does protect most species from massive radiation damage like space events or nuclear weapons being detonated though. A much larger % of sperm are derpy after something like that but those little dudes all lose the race so the next generation isn't born fucked up just the generation that suffered the radiation.
