The pilot targeting only government workers reminds me a lot of Lee Kuan Yew's various eugenics policies:

It certainly doesn't help that the app conveniently targets those between 21 to 35 years of age, which is just before advanced maternal age (also the age where single Singaporeans qualify for public housing).

"6 feet, 6 figures, 6 inches" is Eugenics too. The modern Affluent White Female Urban Liberal (AWFUL) is a massive Eugenicist, even if and especially if they loudly proclaim that they are not.

Positive eugenics never stopped and there's nothing wrong about it. Also there's nothing wrong with the government promoting the creation of stable families with children born before DS risk exceeds 1/100.

		I mean, it sucks if you're a taxpayer over 35 that wants to use the service, especially considering that DS is easy to screen for using modern tests of a mother's blood and Singapore has a reasonable abortion policy
