They aren’t. In fact, there has been significant research on the exact atmospheric conditions needed to replicate snowflakes. [here’s a video](https://youtu.be/ao2Jfm35XeE) on the topic.
But for all intents and purposes, there are so many variables that are all random, the odds of finding two identical snowflakes in the wild is essentially 0. It’s not a law, it’s just a statistical inevitability.
Kinda like rolling 1000 dice or something. Actually, there are so many ways to arrange a deck of 52 cards (52 factorial) that if you really thoroughly shuffle a deck, the odds are that never in the history of playing cards has there ever been a deck with the exact same arrangement of cards. That’s sorta the same as saying every shuffled deck of cards is unique.
