Working draft. Hopefully this works.
To understand humanity, or so THEY figured, you need to strip bare the species and study the base stock. Remove the extra chromosomes, any artificial or xenografted artifacts, the telomerasePROPLUS(TM) longevity enzymes, the meltingpot mix of genes, and all cybernetic implants. Find the oldest, most pristine, set of DNA and study that.
Unfortunately, Eurt and Urssol were held as sacrosanct in the Second Age, and removal of any artifact was utterly illegal.
