I see what you're getting at, there's an element of premeditation and volition that seems necessary. I do wonder how premeditated the first dairy farmers were though. How accidental was that, really? It's like a historical proto-CRISPR.
yeah, thats why I'm prefixing "proto" here because the modern usage is more specific. I think we've been doing proto-transhumanism for an extremely long time.

we're about awfully dualistic with this though, focusing entirely on alterations to the body. technological augmentation/alteration of the mind is also a transhumanism imo. We've been doing this with prosthetics (e.g. writing) and chemistry (e.g. drugs) for thousands of years.
