Thanks for bringing that, I need to read more about how this new crispr/cas9 works since it usually the editing is pretty random. But your criticism about the usage of gene therapy makes sense. Not sure how the costs can goes down so making it accessible to a whole population. And what about the diseases that has multiple genes that need fixing, like cancer? It should be a bit chaotic and expensive o foresee something like that.

Checking the comments, it is good to see someone who watched Gattaca, when I comment this concern citing the movie usually people never heard about it lol

Gattaca is one of my favorite SF-films :)
The kind of gene therapy described is only for a small subset of genetic mutations, cancer is a completely different story and more complex to tackle.
