Why does one of my tomato plants have different leaves? Is this normal?

Hey everyone, I noticed that one of my tomato plants has a different set of leaves compared to the rest, even though they all came from the same batch of seeds (harvested from a single tomato). The other plants look uniform, but this one stands out.
Could this be a mutation, cross-pollination effect, or just a normal variation? Should I keep growing it to see what happens?
Appreciate any insights—thanks!

Every soo often, you get one that does not form a terminal node or leader. This is one of those. It won’t grow and produce fruit, so you should pull it.

This could just be a ‘potato leaf tomato’
