One is variance culture. The variance culture is focused on understanding the diversity of different entities and processes in a system.
Another one is coarse-grain culture. You can think of that as how a physicist might view the world, where one approaches the world based on trying to distill simplicity from complexity.
The last is exactitude culture, which is focused more on trying to understand all the intricate details and connections associated with effectively mapping out all possible kinds of interactions among entities within the system.
