This is clearly a case of "just because we can doesn't mean we should". Sounds like a really bad idea to create life from sperm that doesn't even move.

I concede I'm neither a biologist nor a doctor, and if lazy sperm is not genetic, respectively if children born from this would lead a completely normal life: awesome. I just think knowingly passing on serious disabilities with a high chance to a new generation is something that should be avoided, specifically because you can't ask the people affected, which is the children born. In the end, it's just my ignorant weird feeling from what looks like Frankensteining together something that seems dead to create new life.

But people smoke, drink, do stupid things and so on. So, if those are small cases I guess it's fine. We're having problems in case that becomes the standard way of having babies. However, we're experiencing a wave of women who wants to go back in time andd have babies without even going to the hospitals, so maybe things will fall into place naturally, in the end they are those who decide
