It is true that for the time being, the dominant means for conditioning human behavior and inculcating social and technical skills is through external stimuli processes by senses. Hence children are part of the stimuli known to work and thus deemed essential.
But If human indoctrination can be applied directly at molecular level during the assembly of humans, then all sorts of external stimuli we can’t do without now would become superflous. You don’t ever need to have had any interpersonal relationship because all the results of beneficial interpersonal relationship upon your brain would be built into your brain. You don’t ever need to go through 12, or 16, or 20 years of education to have not only PhD level knowledge of subject matter, but any proficiency in mental process that hitherto can only result from supervised practice.
