No...one snowflake is seldom qualitiatively different from the others.
Fortunately in most cases "ways to read something" are like 50 quintillion snowflakes and
one 200 lb block of ice. One of them kind of stands out in the crowd.
After all, if there were always a myriad of equiprobable "ways to read something", trying to communicate would be futile and pointless. You wouldn't be trying to make that happen, of course. That would make you powerless to influence people's perceptions. Kind of like shooting yourself in the foot so you could use a handicapped parking space.
