Prosthetic limbs and organs attempt to replace their natural equivalents. Why you would think I have a problem with that, I have no idea.
So far I haven't seen amputees opting for tentacles instead of legs, or people deliberately amputating healthy limbs so they can run faster with blades. That would gross me out.

Because you're having this visceral, irrational reaction to what is essentially a nutritionally-modified Ensure or Slimfast or any other meal replacement drink that's been around for the past 20 years! Wait until prosthetics are on equal ground with the real thing - I'd wager once that time comes, willfully trading the real limb for an artifical one will become a real thing.
