There are things that have something in common, as 'red apples', 'red carpets', 'red x-rays,' 'red pens', etc. All those things share 'redness' which is color, because we see it. There are other that have something in common; those things usually are called universalities. So, 'heavy iron', and 'heavy uranium' share 'heaviness', but it's not true about 'heavy metal', because this is just a name of genre, not a true description.
Anyway, there's a question in philosophy whether or not each thing somehow linked to the universalities? In other words, can it be that there are unique things? But less us be careful. Such unique thing as the Sun can be unique comparaly to the other things, while it's not impossible that there may be the same sun somewhere in the other galaxies. Or if Michael Jordan was the top during 1990-1995, then it doesn't mean that it is unique? But why?
On one hand, Michael Jordan's batting averages are unique in some sense, however we can compare it with something. We can imagine that there might be another player, let's say Jeachim Mnadro, and that player hit more balls, but almost nobody knew that. Such things as existence of the Sun, or sport points are just illusionary, not real unique things. Another example - "The Book of Guiness Records"; also not quite unique.
So, what is truly unique? - These are things which cannot be repeated, even imaginary. These are absolute uniqueness, and absolute oneness. So, if we want to understand what the one is, we have to know what does it mean to be the one in absolute sense. It's the same to get what the unique one means. And how to do this, if there are not ways to do this, because no methods cannot be? - This leads only to one conclusion, that if there are unique things we are not even aware of them.
If our knowledge is limited to those common things we can see elsewhere, but we don't know unique things, and the unique things - are the part of everything, then for sure we don't know everything. It's nonsense to claim to know everything, not knowing the unique things in it. Therefore, all what we know - these are knowledge about plural, or fake oneness things, not about the true one things. Our knowlege is limited to the plural ones. And since this is all what we know - we don't know everything, and not even about it.
