It's not easy to do gene therapy? All the editing systems, have off targets that are yet to be studied.

Even then, let's say that they work, what about cases like gestational diabetes? Are you going to do gene therapy on a pregnant person to resolve diabetes that tends to normally vanish off once the baby is born? What about the impact on the baby?

Not a critical point here, but typically gestational diabetes is treated with diet, exercise, and drugs like metformin. The same for type 2 diabetes. It’s best to avoid using insulin when possible because insulin dosing is fairly high risk. People who require treatment with insulin mostly have type 1, and there’s currently no other option.
