Frequencies of joint random pattern studying a single target (A) or two (B) in a neutrophil with three lobes. Even if we find 2 populations of neutrophils with a pattern of joint distribution in a fixed lobe and showing the same frequencies and distributions shown in A, these two populations would show only two of the distributions shown in B with the same frequencies found before if the pattern is not actually independent of the lobe.
