Excellent point, Carla. And while they are modifying and removing healthy flesh, incase the person happens to be in the very small minority of people who develop infection or problem in the future, they can remove the appendix and tonsils while they are at it. And all without anaesthetic, of course, as they are just babies so their pain is soon forgotten. Or, put them to the risks of knock-outs, because the small number that would die or be left with problems, would be inconsequential to the number of children saved in the future or their trauma as a child having to go to hospital to have tonsils out. Then at 16, routinely remove all wisdom teeth, incase they cause problems. Then at 50, perform routine hysterectomies on women to prevent risk of cancer. In the meantime, ensure all vaccinations are given to children and adults (boosters) to prevent diseases. The small minority who will have a negative reaction are inconsequential to the majority benefit of mass vaccination. As Russ says regardin circumcision, some will die and suffer needlessly as a result of the precautionary surgeries and vaccinations, but that doesn't matter because the interest of the majority are served.
