An old saying: 'Birds of the same feather flock together'. Does this renowned, noted saying bolster the theory that there is value for people who belong to a group(s) with which they have something in common. Well, this statement is true to an extent. As shown by successful sport teams and by great start-up companies, there is value for similar people to belong to the same group.
Barcelona, the football team, is constituent of football player that are of the similar speed, the similar skills and similar tactics, and hence it is successful and there is value for all the players to share something common. But Barcelona is not the only team who is successful because of the similarities between the players, but also Manchester United, Chelsea, Real Madrid are all examples of a successful team with similar type of players.
A olympic rower can't expect to win in a team race if his talents don't match his teammates because if he is faster than the rest, then his teammates won't be able to keep up with him and he will end up doing most of the rowing. If he is slower than the rest, then he will slow down the team.
Finally, I conclude that there is value for people to belong only to a group or groups with which they have something in common.
