It's a bit confusing that the term "eugenics" is overloaded. The classic eugenics was about forced breeding or sterilization of individuals or races to produce a "better" society. It was involuntary and racist.
The "eugenics" of this article is about rewriting our own programming in a voluntary and targeted way.
It seems that a new term would be helpful in avoiding the negative connotations of the word "eugenics".
