I fell like the epigenitcs vs. genetics question is going to be definitively answered inside the next eight years. You have a lot of very smart people claiming we're on the cusp of major breakthroughs with gene editing. They all say it's imminent.
In eight years or so if we don't have super smart dogs and super fast horses, well then we'll know they're full of it and stringing things along for funding.
Personally, I think it smells a lot like nuclear fusion. It's been five years away forever and is probably unworkable as a power source. But I keep an open mind. I do not write off the idea that gene editing (or fusion) could be a big deal.
