> I don't find them weird at all, but there's a good chance it'll offend you:

It does not offend me. I cannot say if I would be upset if this were to be turned from idea to reality because the closest thing in reality is quite upsetting; but because I think that the only part of a body capable of suffering is the CNS, I also regard any potential upset on my part about a realisation of your idea as a "me problem", not a "you problem".

That said, I don't know how far we are from being able to perfom what you suggest, even in principle.

It may well be the case that growing a full human without a CNS is harder than solving 3D bioprinting.

One downside of such a degree of biological mastery, is that it does to trust in real life what AI is currently doing to trust online.
