That's an interesting question Chrisy, if I understand it correctly.

Let's say there is a finite number of cancer cells, say 20. Are you
asking if it would be better for each of those 20 cells to have lots
of receptors to better attract the herceptin and toxin and then get zapped?
It makes sense that more receptors would be better. That would
eliminate the olive oil.

It will be interesting to see what the brainiacs come up with.
