15 on a scale of 0 (close) to 100 (far). Closer than 99.0% of all pairs.

These are profiles of the same family, a difference of 15 on the 0 to 100 scale. They differ little in what they value and in the rules they hold. 5 differ in degree rather than direction and on a single dimension one profile engages a question the other sets aside. The sharpest split is Authority & Hierarchy: Behavioral Economics is indifferent where The Wealth of Nations (Smith) strongly opposes.
