The possibility of safely doing whole body gene therapy is barely past experimental so it's hard to understand what you might be trying to explain (it's gonna be hard to cure a genetic disorder some other way).

Sure, an expensive drug to correct some issue with a protein is not the ideal solution, but it's just bizarre to cast something that represents tremendous progress as some kind of novel evil.

Wow, great answer. Why bother saying something unintuitive if you don't have the will to explain it?
