Childlessness is a beautifully self-removing trait.

Ideas aren't genetic.

  • It doesn't have to be genetic to be 'self-removing'.

    What happened to the Shakers?

    • OK, religious ideas are kind of genetic via indoctrination. (Epigenetic? Heh.)

      Meanwhile ideas can be "self-removing" due to being bad, but then you'd just say "that's a bad idea" not "that's self-removing", so genetic descent was implied.
