Pros vs cons is one of the most important concepts in medical research, true. And I feel like many people don't understand that there are always cons, never just pros.
So they rather do nothing.
I'm very happy to hear that you enjoy my content and will follow me regardless of stylistic choice :)
I totally agree!
As I see it, there is some lack of awareness within the general population about these topics. Within the life sciences, not everything is black or white. Quite on the contrary actually. A lot of research was put into these discoveries. They are constantly being refined to diminish the cons. But we're talking of biology and a biological system can be very unpredictable. Sometimes the same organism respond in a way at a given time, but that could change without any noticeable reason afterwards. That's why it has been difficult to tackle many problems and diseases, for example.
There is still a lot we don't know or control. So weighing the pros and cons is very important, because as you said there will always be cons. At least just for now, I hope :)
Note: Just in case someone might question, I'm talking about scientific based cons, not possible political agenda ones. Thanks

Oh, thanks for pointing that out and for the invite.
I'll definitely look at it :)
