Future is here. :) Actually, there's quite a number of other IVF options not mentioned most places e.g. gamete screening.

This idea just really blew my mind. Mostly I have been thinking about how this links with the thesis of The Bell Curve.

Low income: Take the child you get Mid income: Maybe remove some defects High income: best embryo in 10 V. High income: best embryo in 100+

Not so problematic in practice bc 1) early tech will be less effective, 2) human generations are so long. But I advise state funding it.

State funding it removes any wealth-related issues in use of IVF. From state perspective, funding this is a great idea in cost/benefit.
