nradovStartups are pushing the boundaries of reproductive genetics

This kind of blanket ban reasoning is kind of cruel to people with genetic diseases in their family line.
"Hey, you've got a broken gene? Sucks to be you, my rigid ethics requires you to play the lottery with worse odds than the others!"
In another thread about the same subject, I mentioned the issue of color blindness, and how some professions are open to ~92% of men and ~99.5% of women (because of how it's inherited). Society seems to be quite uninterested to start some wide campaign to replace color-coded information, even during the 2010s when the equality debate was active, it was never "upgraded" to include male issues like these.
With DNA editing, this problem could be fixed on the other side (along with much more serious issues that can affect an unlucky individual).
I don't know why there is so much fear to be out-competed by a hypothetical "superhuman", when the most easy implementation of DNA editing seems to be fixing genetic diseases (often "flipping one letter" to the correct one)?
You are advocating for medical experimentation on babies and unborn children. They cannot consent to being part of an medical experiment. Gene editing is not like giving a medication where you can discontinue of someone is having a bad reaction.
Doing something like this for any reason other than to cure a fatal disease would be a straight up crime against humanity - on par with anything the nazis or unit 731 did in WW2
Minimizing what the Nazis did is not cool and the suggestion that providing treatment for debilitating diseases to infants is ‘on par’ with murdering six million jews and millions more is honestly gross to me.
Keep your rhetoric in check before you start minimizing the Holocaust.
I will just drop this here for you.

You might want to take a look at how these experiments inform modern ethical frameworks for biomedical experimentation; and learn what distinguishes ethical conduct of biomedical research from the stuff described in that link.
