Why make a straw man just so you can sarcastically mock it? At least wait for someone to express a real opinion you disagree with. This isn't a good basis for discussion nor very relevant.
Considering the first comment missed that it was sarcasm, I think I hit a recurring sort of argument right on the head. As far as relevancy, I think the the practice of modifying primate genes, specifically to make them more human like in cognitive ways, and then aborting them to prevent the true impact of the development being studied (and to avoid anyone coming after them for human / animal rights violations) is very relevant with this sort of research.
