Why cultural "generations" are flawed

I'm familiar with that sub. What most people there - and elsewhere - don't get about generational theory is that it's not meant to be applied at an individual level. It's about macro trends - any given individual could have traits from any archetype; I tune out when I see someone say that an individual's experiences say anything about generational boundaries.
