The Verge has an article about The Third Thumb where they state "[...] the aim is to re-imagine what we think of as a prosthetic — something that adds capabilities, rather than just replacing those lost."

So much effort is put towards getting people back to baseline, and rightfully so. But it's the creativity of extending ourselves past baseline that gives me a child-like excitement for the future.
