But you're right overall, and advancing science is usually a good thing. The question, though, was "would you have it done?" Personally, I don't think so. If somebody else wants it, I support it fully, as long as remains the subject's choice, and not someone else's. That's a whole different can of worms.
I don't want it done to myself either, although I reserve another's right to have it done as you have said. What concerns me is the can of worms itself. It could become very attractive to alter the minds of people deemed 'problematic' by society, and I think that is scary stuff.
