That is due to purity being an inherent attribute of the soul. --Mahatma GandhiProtos are the Newton's solution to tight memory constraints. They are also the vehicles of code reusability, and thus the components of code libraries. The definition of a proto is fairly straightforward:

Likewise, if you have sisters or brothers, they are rarely identical twins. Similarly, a template will usually have some additional elements added to it that make it look or act differently from both its proto and other templates that proto from the same proto.
