This isn't unlikely at all. But even if you do, it results in ethical issues
which are very real, and it doesn't solve any big problems. For me that's
enough reason not to support it. But that reason depends on the observation
that there are no big use cases, which is why we are trying to find some.
(Note that this is not the same try as looking for use cases of non-trivial
confinement, although it is related.)

Yes.
