That we are all individuals with individual experiences does not change that the human experience is the sum of human experience. You're just waxing philosophically now, navel gazing.

Where do I find this "sum of human experience"? How is this collected and how is it calculated? This isn't exactly maths we're talking about here.
It's always in the last place you look.

Yes, the borders of "the sum of all humanity", very strict and exclusive definitions there. It only umbrellises literally everything human. Do I need to remind you that I'm the one insisting that all fantasy races are contained within the human condition, and that others -- I don't remember if you personally did this -- are arguing with me that they are not? I'm not the one putting borders around the what does not count as "the human experience" here.
