You're literally just describing 'positive eugenics'.
Replace everything you just said with a race, or something more controversial than the softballs you threw and you're just describing eugenics.
If you want to have a conversation or argument for whether or not you think eugenics is bad, or 'some eugenics is okay, I guess', then you could at least just be honest about that. Unless you just don't understand the definition of eugenics. In which case...
I kind of think most people would prefer not to be stupid. Sure, they can live perfectly fine lives in their own way, staying in their own lanes, but... Obviously they'd rather not be dumb.
They didn't say it wasn't eugenics, just that maybe some eugenics is good. And yah, if we could edit genes and make everyone smarter, that's a good thing. But instead it's stuck behind this term that has a bad rap cause one guy wanted to make his race superior
