bare numerical difference(the only remaining difference when other types of differences vanish)
The idea that two things are simply counted as two separate things, even if they're completely identical in every way—the difference is just that there are two of them, not one.
qualitative asymmetry(types of differences being analyzed)
A difference in the actual qualities or properties of things—like one sphere being red and another being blue.
