We know the labs were specifically trying to enhance the viruses ability to infect humans ("gain of function"). Regardless of whether or not SARS-COV-2 leaked from a lab, I think the world has seen enough to know that trying to engineer viruses to be more easily transmitted is a huge mistake and should be permanently banned.

There is a recent paper about gain of function but there doesn't seem to be any reason to suspect that gain was artificially induced.
