I think the problem with robotics is less the lack of people to borg and more the lack of utility outside of borgs.
Sure, you can give people robo limbs and such, but that's only useful to an extent.
I think we should focus less on genetics and more on the real issue: robotics is pretty lame right now.
There's tons of potential for mad science as well as more practical industrial machinery. Give us more specialized or customizable station bots. Let us set up assembly lines like the ones in the buddy factory. Let us do something besides cater to a bunch of cyborgs.
