I love bamboo, bananas and papayas in the garden... find the first two quite satisfactory as is... but, papayas look so good... they thrive with neglect, and produce spectacularly with even a little bit of care... while still producing nothing but a disappointment. They smell funny when good... and rot into something much worse. The biotech crowd are touting the emergence of crisper and long read sequencing, along with improved understanding in cellular aging and cell death as processes, as indicating they'll conquer cancer "soon" ... still 3 to 5 years out... just like the adoption of germanium instead of silicon was always a few years out... But, that story is gone now: When Moore's Law Ends: 3 Alternatives to Silicon Chips In biotech, I'll be happy if they can engineer a papaya that doesn't smell so weird, and prove so mostly useless inspite of looking good. But, if they tasted more like a ripe cantaloupe ? Maybe make mangos more like passion fruit... and less like pine cones ? Biotech has been "the next big thing" most of my life... but my mango smoothy still tastes like pine cones ? Fortunately, vanilla beans don't need fixing...
