>I still wish we tried harder to heal the "original equipment from the manufacturer" we are all born with You know that this is hard. Are you saying we should just spend more in that particular area instead of spending on kidney transplants? Eventually research will improve and we may need less transplants, but in the meantime they're a great solution, and according to a quick search those transplants actually save the healthcare system money. Research is great. But the flashy solution turns out to be also great, pays for itself, and yields concrete results today. Sometimes I think there's too much of a reaction against flashy, to the point that people discount the flashy things that are good. We should judge things on the outcomes and the costs, not superficially on whether they feel boring or flashy!
