People are free to do what they want. No moral obligation - just freedom.
But if by any chance I found that I had this same mutation and could take advantage of their fix, I would be interested.
If you found out say your son had the same mutation, wouldn't you be interested as well? Please note we are not taking about East Whateveria or how West Whateveria might gloat about not having this mutation. We are just talking about how oneday we might have the freedom to take such a decision for ourselves.
Because it's all about freedom, and unfortunately without having the scientific know-how it's pointless to speculate about what we might do.
This is why I support such initiatives- it will offer more possibilities, possibilities that we can only dream about now.

- icelancer 14y agoThe fact that science has scared off a sufficient amount of idiots in the past doesn't make it a bad thing.

Unfortunately, watchdog groups like to argue that having that option is detrimental. They usually conflate it with claims of "ethnic eugenics". Btw, to a large extent today you already have the ability to make genetic modifications before insemination or embryo implantation. Screening too..
