It sounds rather like claiming that “flight will be achieved by genetically modifying persons to fly, so there will be little incentive to work on the much-more-difficult problem of flying an unmodified person”.
Yes. And that’s what I would say, if we didn’t have airplanes, and I thought that modifying people to fly would be easier than building airplanes, regardless of the performance desired. None of those things are true.

You’re right—bad metaphor. What about the vision one?
