Unless one is talking organ transplants, One would assume the only way to do genetic tampering, modification, and corrections would be at the single cell stage. Meaning whatever comes out as a result of gene modification has to grow up before it can become a useful member of society. And given that whomever that is will still be in the normal education system....they still might not amount to anything is life. They could be bulllied in school...or defending on the modifications, might be the bullies at school. They might be so smart, or fast, or strong they get a superiority complex...or get a lazy attitude and fail in everything because it is boring.

Unless you segrigate your new super soldiers....but then you are potentially dehumanizing them.

Unless someone has been working on some sort of gene injection tech that should rewrite your own DNA. Then you would get changes in adults (assuming their cells haven't basically stopped dividing as is what they say is a cause for "old age").

It does bring up bad images from one of the Batman cartoons of animal splicing into humans. Though you would get cat girls out of the deal.....
