    It’s safe to say that the attitudes toward genetic modification will shift and morph over time. In the TOS era, violent conflicts with augments are much more recent history, so it makes sense that that’s the first justification that comes into play in these discussions.

      Yeah. I’m willing to accept that attitudes towards a technology change over a century. What would environmentalism look like in 1923 compared to now?
