"Researchers, firms target diet-gene link"
a couple of 'points':
there's danger of an 'economics' eugenics, here.
for reasons i've discussed in other msgs in this thread, without "NDT's understanding", significantly-lengthened life 'times' will constitute a a commensurately-negative 'pressure' with respect to the overall progress of Humanity.
with "NDT's understanding", progress will acelerate, and, rather than being exacerbated, the population problem will diminish, even if life 'times' are significantly-lengthened, because "NDT's understanding" enables biological reward in a generalized way, and this 'levels-the-playing-field" between generalized creativity and procreativity.
