Seems like this is only going to help attract less intelligent women, because the smart ones will know their offspring won’t be getting genetics for height with someone who is artificially tall. Full speed ahead toward idiocracy.
There are so many assumptions being made here. I want to know what the conditions in this hypothetical world are. It sounds fascinating.
Tech bros need money to get height gainz -> must pass tech interviews/bring a product to market -> intelligence
But also there is probably a correlation between height and wealth as well. Either way I don't think that it's anyone's place to determine who should reproduce.
Not by much, maybe an inch or two (exceptions exist though). I am taller than my taller parent (dad) by an inch. My dad is taller than his dad (the taller parent) by about 3 inches.
Given that such a surgery adds up to 3 inches in height, things could work out just fine. It isn't like this surgery tranforms 5'1 people into 6'1 people.
