Even though the head might look the same, the way the body moves could be quite different.

There's been a lot of turnover in both parties. There's not a Liberal who got elected before 2014! The PC caucus of 29, retirements aside, will still host 4 members first elected in 2010, another from 2012, and 3 from 2014.
MLAs by first year of election:
2023 byelections: 3 Lib
2022 byelections: 2 PC
2020 GE: 10 PC, 2 Lib (1 retiring)
2018 GE: 5 PC + Cardy, 7 Lib, 2 Green (1 retiring, 1 likely to retire (Anderson-Mason), Cardy unknown
2014 GE: 4 PC, 4 Lib, 1 Green (1 PC retiring)
2012 byelection: 1 PC
2010 GE: 5 PC (1 retiring)
2003 GE: 1 PC (retiring)
1999 GE: 1 PC (retiring)
