Mutations and known sequences are factual, unchanging pieces of knowledge that I could research and check against my own sequence information if I had the time and desire. So, why not allow me to pay someone else to do it automatically. There is no medical interpretation being made. Matching sequences is a completely objective process.
If I want a medical professional's interpretation of the results, I can go see my doctor with my sequencing.
Dispensing medical advice without a license is already a heavily policed offense. We don't need more redundant laws on the books.
