I think you are right about the competition and therefore the body wouldn't react like the receptor had been removed. Likely, I am over-thinking this. Nevermind.
I think the number of receptors a person has for anything is very individual, and is part of the reason medicine is so "try it and see". We are all unique. Snowflakes, everyone.
