While we're generally symmetrical, the human body is full of wonderful irregularities -- different sized eyes or slightly longer/shorter limbs etc are exceedingly common.

> Eyes not quite the same size, breasts pointing in markedly different directions, bone structure on the face markedly different to each side.

Jodorowsky would absolutely cast actors with those physical characteristics if they could be found, so in this case I’d say feature not bug.

> To that end I am also amazed at how forgiving our brains are for this stuff (a bit like being able to listen to music over a fuzzy, in/out AM station without much bother).

My brain was so forgiving that I didn't even really notice the asymmetries until I looked at the images a second time after reading your comment. I agree that especially in the case of eyes it distracts a bit. Those are generally pretty symmetrical (I say, with one eye that is always a bit narrower compared to the other ^^)

The symmetry of human faces is possible, Midjourney can now do it easily, but the promoter didn't ask for it in this instance.
