With no diversity wouldn't these be vulnerable to a well tailored disease? I thought that was one of the benefits of sexual reproduction.

  By what delusion do you think we can tailor a disease that well? That's some serious hubris right there.

    For a layperson like me it doesn't seem that far-fetched, and I'm clearly not delusional.

      Silly me...we can just take this "well tailored disease" down off the shelf. It's next to the disease that takes out invasive rats, kudzu and cockroaches with no potential side effects. Couldn't be simpler. Nope...no delusion here.
