Apparently so are most of the male conditions that require ICSI IVF.

Interesting, I did not know that. Makes me wonder if we're compounding infertility issues into the future if this is done at scale. Not saying that's right or wrong, but it's worth thinking about.

Probably we are, but we're also negating them with science at probably a higher rate.

Right, exactly, that's my point. We're building in a dependency for future fertility on these advanced techniques (again, assuming the scaling theory is true).
