I agree.
I am taking issue with the articles title "CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing causes lots of mutations"
From the current literature, there have been bad and good examples of this, but it is still a field in flux. We do not know conclusively what the effect is, how large, and how local. This makes blanket statements like "CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing causes lots of mutations" controversial.
