I read this and thought of "The Forbidden Experiment", and what fun it 
was that educators get to play with mild versions of that.

But thinking on the ethical issues, I realized that it's not so simple:

there was any reason to avoid mutation, or the ones from whom knowledge 
of mutation has been withheld?
