minus-square@Valmond@lemmy.mindoki.comlinkfedilinkEnglish2•2 years agoSure, but there are also lots of gene-repair systems already in place. Some animals have lots (more than us) and have way less point mutations etc. Also, as long as we can buy ourselves some extra decades, new tech will emerge and work even better.
