I am not talking about utility, but if I had: Assuming that people truly understand what the test can tell them (is a high bar), then: - this T2D PRS is unlikely useful for anyone - this T2D PRS is not useful for indivs that **DON'T** resemble 23andme customer base
In what sense? Personal choice is wonderful language, but monitoring your diabetes status over a lifetime requires tens of thousands in lab tests, not to mention the cost of the test itself. Where's the value?

But if we are going to talk public policy - as
@statsepi noted above, it would be fascinating to see someone try and justify these tests based on an epidemiological argument -
Well - I certainly wouldn't be constantly monitoring my T2D status on the basis of these results. I'd think more like a short-term continuous glucose monitoring trial to see how you respond to different foods. Or just pass on dessert more often.
