I’d add that the number of seams is escalating rapidly. For example, in cancer, the discovery of oncogenes (like HER2 in breast cancer) and tumor suppressor genes (like BRCA1/BRCA2) has led to the classification of cancers into molecular subtypes. Diseases that were once seen as singular entities are now recognized as a collection of molecularly distinct subtypes. There was only one seam before but now there are many.
