A lot of elite sportsman are already genetically blessed. They just got there randomly instead of by design.
I would imagine this debate depends a lot on 1) how many people have their genes edited, and 2) how big of a difference that can actually make.
- MagicMoonlight 11mo agoI mean if we look at the athletes around before the invention of steroids, they weren’t genetically blessed at all. Is Usain Bolt actually superior, or is it purely the drugs? It’s difficult to say, because the drugs don’t exist and nobody ever takes them and it’s all skill and talent.

If they had no steroids, and their training was far worse than what we have now (running on wood chip tracks), and they were still the best individual in the world at doing their thing, they were definitely genetically blessed.
