>That said people trying to distinguish use of any tool to 'fix' an abnormality vs 'enhance' something that is normal are idiots because the distinction is merely one of perspective around whether something is 'broken' or not. man, while i fully support speeding up the evolution through all the means possible, your statement is kind of self-contradictory: you use "normal", and thus implicitly you bring up the notion of some distribution with clear notion of "normal", ie. some well distinguishable significant mass at the center and thus the 'fix'/'enhance' difference becomes very well defined (not just merely one of perspective) - 'fix' is moving up toward the mean/center mass while 'enhance' is moving up toward the mass's upper edge and away from it.
