In Dune, they’re called Axlotl Tanks.

One benefit I see is lab-grown meat won’t come with misfolded proteins.

After we solve most bacteria and viruses, this’ll be the next thing you solve, and lab-grown meat probably solves it out of the box.

Not sure the Dune simile is a good one, here... in the prequals they're shown to be humans hooked up to nutrient feed lines. Or that was the point and I missed it...

Not just in the prequels. Not just any humans. Humans with a womb.
