I think this would be a good change, it never feels great to go to medical and just...instantly ask for mutadone. It feels bad but honestly, I just can't stand accent mutations, certain visual modifiers etc. Also, you already run the risk of stuff you can't remove with mutadone, I have been monkey and lizard as my skeleton character...so many times. It is a risk I run and know can happen while taking it! I don't interact with genetics much and more reason to couldn't hurt much IMO. If people are ooc grumping you because of a cooldown or something then Ahelp them. Not cool and not something that needs to be modulated by game mechanics.
What I would love to see personally alongside this is more genetic traits that let you pick more flavor things, I would love to have crystal snaps and stuff like that for example.
An option for people who don't want to roll the high-stakes lottery would be cool and honestly I do feel like the fact it can be removed at all kind of spits in the face of the spirit of the trait.
I don't think wanting to just not have a bad mutation that makes the play experience worse like constant ringing noises is powergaming but I do think picking the trait just because you want to roll the dice at having an extremely powerful mutation because it is easy to get rid of stuff you can roll like a cough and stuff kind of is. There should be more permanence to it IMO. You should be picking it because you want a varied experience that mixes stuff up. That is how I look at it anyway.
I think the suggested change would make the trait fit in with the spirit of the trait more than it currently does. As for other stuff I feel like more traits that give you mild/ flavor mutations could be nice. I don't do genetics though so I am sure there are some problems with that like power gaming some mutation combos and stuff like that.
