I agree -- there is reason to be concerned, and as I've noted before you can be certain that the IVF places have already set such on their "not allowed" lists. will it happen? Almost certainly. And, imo, its wrong to try and stop it fr being done voluntarily though anything other than simple discourse Make it required, and I'll buy Nexy a tank.
