Imagine laws that sanction mandatory "improvements" on the future subjects. To me, in that context, this "it's grossly unethical to stand in the way if that progress" is where the true (as in hardcore) politics begins. (Compare to that, the current politics, which deals in easy amendable decisions, feels like child play.) Then there is this dynamic we can all see in software development, with haste of feature addition and not much regard for other lesser aspects (in the marketable sense), that may cross into gene development. There are many more interesting angles that will pop up if you give it a thought...
