The difficulties start with accepting that differences exist and aren’t an error and aren’t easily dissolvable. Humans don’t seem to be good at accepting that. We seem to have been born expecting something else.
Saying “the awkward fracturing of humanity is a brute fact of any multipolar situation in a large universe” doesn’t seem to do the job, so I propose naming Babel, the demon of otherness and miscommunication, and explaining that humanity is fractured because a demon cursed it.
There are nice things about Babel. Babel is also the spirit of specialization, trade, and surprise.
