Ideally the hypothetical down syndrome man will be able to seek help and pay someone for their time if their immediate support network fails them. Perhaps an assisted living center. No need to introduce a nanny state to account for an edge case, need based market dynamics will do that easily enough if the person in need has the financial means.
Right now the solution to that hypothetical poor down syndrome man is the salvation army and living on the street. I see it every day with a variety of mental health issues outside my luxury apartment. The disparity is sickening, and our system is failing it's people immensely.
Personally I'm very hopeful that a combination of gene editing and AI will alleviate malodies and allow everyone clarity of thought.
