  Embodiments and Contextual Difference
Bernard is isolated from society because of slight abnormality in his physical appearance.
Bernard is slightly smaller and shorter than he should be, and this difference is the site of speculation not only for himself, but also Lenina, our female protagonist, who surmises that alcohol may have inadvertently gotten into Bernard’s blood surrogate.
In essence, Lenina remains unchanged throughout the novel, while Bernard, John, and Watson are used as conduits through which to perceive the effect of this new society on a variety of individuals, which finally results in John’s suicide and the voluntary exile of Bernard and Watson.

 somaweb.org > Aldous Huxley's Americanization of the Brave New World typescript - Critical Essay
Lenina can infatuate Bernard and attempt to seduce John; this seduction would have been impossible if she and Nina were identical, and it would have been confusing if John had a mother named Nina and a love interest named Lenina.
All of chapter 7 describing Bernard and Lenina's reactions to Malpais, TS 94-119, are typed in purple ribbon and probably were written later than section 3, on which they elaborate without Lawrence's enthusiasm for Indian rites and rituals.
In the revised typescript, where he is the 25-year-old Bernard's closest friend, Watson still gives the impression of being an older, maturer person; as his enlightenment begins, he experiences a secondary adolescence, a supplementary growth or rebirth.

OW: Yes, it's rather a funny thing to start with really, because it's not the sort of thing of Bernard's we would have bought at that time, and in fact we didn't buy it at that time.
It's rather a modest example and I suppose that's part of its interest, just being a cup and saucer, because at that time he wasn't really wanting to do domestic wares, earning his money by making tea sets and things, and he used to complain about that in his writings.

 Edward Caird [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
A Scottish philosopher of the latter half of the nineteenth century, Edward Caird was one of the key figures of the idealist movement that dominated British philosophy from 1870 until the mid 1920s.
Best known for his studies of Kant and Hegel, Caird exercised a strong influence on the 'second generation' of idealists, such as John Watson and Bernard Bosanquet.
It is, in part, for this reason that he exercised such a strong influence--particularly on the relation of philosophy and religion--on later idealists such as John Watson (1847-1939) and Bernard Bosanquet (1848-1923).
