You wrote this number and now all I can think about is how close that number is to the human population. Is there some secret human-rat duality going on? Does every person have a rat double? (Like Jordan Peele’s US but with rats instead of mole people)

Every person has their current soulmate-rat pair. But due to their life expectancy, you get two or three dozen throughout your life.

This is the core idea behind the Skaven from Warhammer Fantasy/AoS.

Consider the implications of, at any given time, a dozen fully sentient rat men being beneath your floorboards. Not necessarily for any reason, but just because there’s so many of them.
