gollark: Maybe faster healing somehow, but good luck finding genes for that.
gollark: But most war is not actually melee combat now.
gollark: Obviously you can probably do... bigger muscles, or something, just remove myostatin, but I don't think that's very useful in modern warfare.
gollark: How would you actually do that? What traits would make soldiers significantly better, and are actually mostly genetic (and easily editable)?
gollark: I think that would imply that you actually mix the genes (and fairly evenly).
