Somatic cells may be modified for non-cosmetic purposes without restriction, as long as the activity does not constitute a Non-Ameliorable Harmful Activity (`NAHA`) as defined elsewhere in this constitution.
Somatic cells may be edited for cosmetic purposes without restriction as long as the subject of the modification is sui juris and the activity does not constitute a `NAHA`.
All germ-line editing is automatically classified as being a `NAHA`**by default** and the burden of proof that it is not a `NAHA` rests on the entity producing the specimen. Furthemore the conagent engaging in the activity must demonstrate that **all** descendants of their germ-line edited specimen can be completely tracked, labeled and kept within the confines of their own private property, or of the property of the conagents to whom they sell/distribute them, **beyond reasonable doubt**.
