With the pain free animals, I would have to disagree with the opinions stated on the podcast.
There are many people around the world who have no sense of pain and they (as well as their carers/partners/friends) have to keep a constant visual watch on themselves as they can easily injure themselves without realising it.
The animals would be the same, they would require a very close watchful eye from the farmer is bred in such a way and it could actually be crueller to the animals than for them to feel pain.
As for people who suffer chronic pain, something more targetted and that could be applied as needed would be preferential, we are better off letting the current research in to this area continue than to look at offering permanent pain relief through the methods discussed here.
