   So deliberately using artificial selection and perhaps more advanced genetic editing techniques to create enhanced and improved primates is also natural and pretty cool.

   Artificially created elements are not necessarily artificial...they may occur naturally in the universe(s) somewhere, we just haven't found them.

   but the definition of synthetic elements is "do not occur naturally on Earth" so please explain why you are discrediting a definition.. if thats the case, i can say any word means something else without any reconciliation. This then changes every word ever in history.

   That's a bit of a 'self important' definition isn't it.

    Yeah I already said we should super-enhance them in labs.

    So why didn't we start thousands of years ago like we did with dogs?
    
    We could have utopia already.

    It wasn't a personal reference to you, it was a comment on the absurdity of "the powers that be" limiting the definition of "synthetic" to Earth based only when the universe is vast.

    Nature may not directly make synthetic products but it makes the things that make synthetic products therefore making them natural.

    Nature is also responsible for the abnormal and unnatural...that doesn't make much sense either.

    Wait I said we should super enhance any special abilities they might have that we ourselves don't have. I guess maybe we think that it isn't worth the investment and that we can just simply invest in ourselves to do the same things since we're already so far ahead of them.

    Things that are unnatural are just unnatural in the pedantic sense of the definition of the word, but really they're just as natural as anything else.

    now you are just making up your own definitions. thats not how human speech works..
    you are just saying non-sense that you think sounds good but in reality thats not how it works.
