Exact excerpt

On Star Trek, this outcome is avoided because a war with genetically enhanced supermen led to the banning of genetic enhancement. Of course, the real reason for the genetic engineering ban on Star Trek is that stories about people fundamentally like us are easier for writers to write and viewers to relate to.
