    HIV

    I said it’s like HIV, as an analogy. I intentionally chose something not genetic.

    What about sex? Height? ADHD? Skin/hair color?

    All of these things are mutable already (or treatable, in the case of ADHD). But “diversity” and a serious disorder like Down Syndrome are completely different things. Why should we embrace Down Syndrome when we could eradicate it? If you really believe that Down Syndrome is a good thing, then why not invent whole new disorders for the sake of adding diversity?
