Same one, new one, or is it you?
Swapped or Changed?A line-up for a familiar thing that seems different
Name the thing, say what feels off and tick the clues that fit. Four suspects step up to the height chart - it changed, it was swapped, you changed, memory drift - each as tall as its clue points. The page picks one and names the cheapest test that would settle it, for free.

3 Weigh the evidence
One run lays out the evidence for and against each suspect from your own clues, explains the page's pick and words the test for your thing. The pick and the clue points stay as they are.

How the page decides
Four suspects, always in the same order: it changed (the same one, different now), it was swapped (a different one in its place), you changed (your taste, routine or setting moved) and memory drift (it was never quite as you remember). Each clue you tick adds or takes away fixed clue points - the list beside each clue shows which way it pushes - and each suspect stands as tall as its total.
The pick, first match wins: fewer than two clues ticked - no pick yet; a leader with one clue point or fewer - no pick yet; otherwise the tallest suspect. Ties go to the suspect standing further left. The leader and the next suspect decide the critical unknown and the test - the one cheap check that would tell them apart.
A playful line-up for familiar things, not advice. It never judges people or pets: if a person close to you ever seems to have been replaced by an impostor, that feeling is worth raising with a doctor. If something you eat, drink or plug in seems off, stop using it rather than testing it. The page only sees what you type, so keep names and personal details out of it.
