I see where you're coming from, but a prosthetic arm is someone's arm. Mentally it very quickly can become something you identify with, like a prosthetic arm basically being YOUR arm.
When you then have your prosthetic then being an advertisement, it can have an impact on your relationship with the device.
I don't want someone branding my arm and I can see why others would feel the same.

- stndef 2y agoYou're right -- I totally misread what you said. Sorry! I think tattoo does imply more of a permanence and familiarity in regards to the relationship someone would have with a tattoo on a part of their body they're born with, but I do see your point as well.
