Your idea that genetic manipulation has potential makes sense, yet I found it interesting that you put constraints on this by saying that the stocks must be created with caution and entirely separate from wild populations. I agree, but I wonder if “added caution” is something that is able to be regulated, because extra caution doesn’t necessarily prevent any negative consequences, and domesticated stocks aren’t necessarily entirely separated from wild stocks. What counts as a reasonable amount of added caution, and is it enough to keep most people placated when it comes to genetic modification?
