I’m curious as to why you think this since I mostly believe the opposite.
Do you mean general “induce an organism to gain a function” research (of which I agree shouldn’t be opposed) or specifically (probably what most people refer to / here) “cause a virus to become more pathogenic or lethal”?
Edit;
Your comment originally said you thought GoF research should go ahead. You’ve edited your comment to make a different point (viral GoF to transhumanist cognition enhancement).
Given the CCPs backtracking from its zero covid policy (at least for the moment), this looks like it was a pretty good prediction.
