Getting back to the conversation, do you have any examples of real-world neglect that we can discuss?

No. I just wanted to clarify OP's statement. They weren't claiming that scientists don't know about horizontal gene transfer or that anyone is necessarily neglecting it currently, only that it is a "potential danger," which is true and discussed as a legitmate concern in the literature.

I read the comment differently, I guess we'll never know unless OP responds.
