Cyberpunk regroup a LOT of things. If we take Blade Runner as a reference, it made its points without driving away everyone (obviously it doesn't take much to drive away godfearer).
The big difference is that anything creepy doesn't last or represent the entire setting. I vaguely remember a book I read describing how biomodification allowed a pregnant woman to make her child visible and it was less creepy than Death Stranding right now and still less creepy than Eudeamon.
Only thing more creepy I can think of is "I have no mouth, and I must scream".

At best Eudeamon would go into horror story. It feel like "There's a creepy AI that 'win' over you and push you to create more like him like a self-replicating machine, eventually converting making all of mankind into faceless robot", not helped by how it rely on magic-level technology.

>Not sure I understand you here, how can inertia bring about a change such as the end of patenting?
I mean it NEGATE anything that would try to change and bring the end...etc. Keep it going even if there was good (but not enough) reasons to stop.
It would take a war for us to give up and it's not going to happen as long as MAD strategy persist. Some capitalist will consider ignoring patent to be as horrible as war.
They would scream "commies are coming to steal MY right to get every profit from this billions company and its IP."

>You meme had things like "genes edited to perfection", "physical perfection" and more
If we stop at superficial meme word and ignore the message or context we are not going very far.
In particular, the Chad meme claim "physical perfection" as if it existed within natural selection (tip: it doesn't).
GATTACA as far as I can tell from a summary, end with mind and psyche being more important than physical perfection.
So basically it's the opposite.
