    people with downs syndrome have a significantly shorter lifespan compared to the rest of society. these people would still be who they are even after treatment but would have the potential to live longer healthier lives.

    get your philosophical moralistic bullshit out of here. if you were so concerned about this before why not complain about how you aren’t the same physical being after 10 years due to all your cells being in a constant state of death and rebirth.

      Yeah, I’m not arguing against curing Down’s syndrome. I updated my post to be clearer.

      However your “Ship of Theseus” argument makes no sense and is completely irrelevant.
