I’m not well versed in issues with genetics to discuss the merits but one thing I will say is that billionaires tend not to do things like this because, I think, in order to become a billionaire you necessarily have to have a view of the world which seems to filter out a desire to give away large amounts of value. There are SO MANY social problems which billionaires are at least financially capable of solving which they do not in fact solve simply because they do not seem to think this way. One example - Bill Gates could have made sure the Covid vaccine was open source and he could have helped factories around the world tool up to make it, saving potentially millions of lives. But the way he thinks he can’t seem to imagine doing that and instead believes proprietary medicine is somehow the way. Which even if one believed it was in general, I strongly disagree that was the right solution for the acute global tragedy that was the onset of Covid around the world.
