China is trying to solve their fertility problem. They have been selecting for male offspring so long that their reproduction rate is well below replacement levels.
Well, that is one problem, but the One Child Policy was huge.
Agreed. I see it as an option for women young enough to produce eggs, but perhaps too old to carry a baby. Also, a few women producing an egg each month could “donate” (read: have confiscated by the Chicom govt) to the fertility robots to have multiple eggs grow simultaneously.
