The Rules

...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

It's not going to happen. Genetic experiments on humans is banned in many countries and even if that weren't the case you're talking about an enormously expensive social program of intervening in an entire generation at conception. Maybe a few billionaires would do it, but they can afford to live comfortably anyway and they don't care if a few serfs die of heat exhaustion.
