"Is that the only way you can succeed, is to see me fail?"

I find it particularly noteworthy that in the film, genetic diversity is shunned and used as a wedge to divide people apart. Because Vincent is a god-child, he cannot be allowed to succeed or the very notions their society is predicated upon, the duality of the valid and the invalid, will begin to crumble. If Vincent can be successful as a borrowed ladder, why should anyone bother editing themselves in the first place?
