   @judgedread @Mr_NutterButter Caricature artists are practiced in this; they're trained to look for whichever features stand out from the "norm".
   
   It would be interesting to see an example of what they (caricature artists) would classify as a featureless individual; a person with "normal" everything that defies the caricature.

     @Mr_NutterButter Facial recognition does not work by having hundreds of raster images stored in compressed form. It works by storing a set of attributes that can be invoked by a line drawing. Look at the cover of Look Who's Back for a very extreme simplified drawing that is instantly recognizable to most Western audiences.
     
     I suspect there is a simulation of the simulation aspect as well. Once you learn to look at cartoons even more abstract versions can still work. The weird evolution of Bugs Bunny and Snoopy being cases in point. They both were originally very close to the anatomy of their respective species, but the demands of the story required a more anthropomorphic form. But audiences know they're a rabbit and a dog.

     @judgedread Explain your conclusions so far. It sounds interesting.

     Why cartoons work is a very interesting pattern recognition case study.
