If (f^{std} ( cdot )) is a linear function, the power deviation (Delta P_{i} (t)) of turbine i and (Delta P_{j} (t)) of turbine j, caused by the speed deviations of (Delta v_{i} (t),Delta v_{j} (t)), can be exactly offset, i.e.: (Delta P_{i} (t),Delta P_{j} (t)).
Under certain conditions the increase in diversity, due to an increase in population size, can be exactly offset by an increase in the effectiveness of selection, to yield a constant level of DNA diversity [14].
In the same spirit, if some parents, rich or poor, are more strongly motivated than others to help their children get ahead in life, these efforts are somehow exactly offset, so having the good luck to have especially concerned parents does not affect one's comparative life prospects.
