If I don’t build it, someone else will, and with my technology, no doubt. I would much rather that history’s first artificially created human being be the result of my painstaking research than the work of some reckless Swiss scientist who doesn’t share my commitment to safety.

I would also prefer not to live in a world where someone else not-named-Frankenstein wins the Monster race and then gets to call his creation the “Frankenstein’s Monster.” That would be both scientifically unfair and, frankly, a branding nightmare.

Personally I think the west needs Frankenstein technology, because China is already working on theirs. We can't let our dead fall behind! They need to hussle if they're going to afford nice pine boxes.
