You raise a good point and I admit I didn't consider the more logical path replacement limbs would take, but I do think I can rearrange things in a way that makes more sense and add a few new aspects to the world. Thank you for that informative comment. --[[User:NoGo45|NoGo45]] ([[User talk:NoGo45|talk]]) 17:49, 16 January 2020 (CET) | |||

I know you probably want them for your story; but with the early success at 3D Bio-Printing, prosthetic limbs, and therefore cybernetic limbs, aren't likely to advance very much farther. By the time we can make fully functional prosthetic limbs, we should be able to bioprint a replacement limb which would not require anti-rejection medication, and would effectively be exactly like the original limb. The only possible advantage to cybernetics would be in the realm of transhumanism . . . the improvement of the humanity through technology. If cybernetic limbs were an improvement on the abilities of natural limbs, and improved to the point where dangerous anti-rejection drugs were not necessary, then they might have a place in a future society. Such a place would likely not be a medical choice so much as an accessory choice. It would be more like getting a smartwatch than repairing an injury. If you want to go the route of Cyberpunk or Battle Angel Alita, I recommend going with transhumanism rather than medical need. Just my two cents. --Elerneron (talk) 10:38, 16 January 2020 (CET)
