What is the similarity between the knowledge and expertise of each of the
writers?
What is the level of experience, with the subject matter, of each of the
writers?
If they all conform to the 'defined standards', layout and format should be
very similar.
An astute reader would be able to determine which writer wrote which
document, after looking at a sample from each.
Everyone has their own 'unique' style of putting words together.
This could go on ad infinitum.
