Because some of us want the real thing, not the fake thing achieved by cheaters.
I'm the same in other areas of life. I don't take steroids, I work out in the gym. I don't take drugs to have trips and achieve enlightenment, I tried to find Zen on my own.
I wouldn't partner with someone who had a cosmetic surgery ("fake beauty"), nor someone who wears makeup.
Up to every individual of course, I'm not even saying I will never take TRT (probably eventually, when I'm older, for health reasons), but I, above everything else, value (and want) authenticity.
>Why shouldn't we just use science and technology to fix human problems and remove any unfortunate consequences from society?
Because this comes at the cost of one's essential humanity.
But at the same time, part of me wants to ask... why is this a problem? Why shouldn't we just use science and technology to fix human problems and remove any unfortunate consequences from society?
What's wrong with a world where anyone can eat as much of anything as they want, do no exercise at all, ignore their dental health and smoke like a chimney, yet still have perfect health without any downsides?
Objectively, it would be a better society, with everyone materially better off and a system that doesn't need anywhere near as many resources to care of its citizens.
Why would it matter what route is chosen here?
