Aww, FUCK no!

If you don't think this has bad idea written all over it your radar is broken. Suddenly we have a group of completely indistinguishable human bodies on which we can visit any atrocities we wish to deploy? I cont imagine anything going wrong with that. No possibility of, say, a black market of pithed humans being sold as experimental artificially grown humans. No dehumanizing attitudes that could be fostered.

Just wait until the sex industry gets ahold of them.
