I have such mixed feelings about this.

Will watch more of the content and post my further thoughts on.

If you want to read a cool science fiction novel about the effects of a short lived designer baby trait (no need to sleep) on society and the world I highly recommend Beggars In Spain by Nancy Kress. The novel is the first in a trilogy that was quite good overall.
