The grain is this.......

Selective breeding, cross polinization, ie  is a MACROgenetic activites.
Your dealing with big structures like whole sheep, plants, seed etc.

Manipulating the actual DNA, protein sequences, etc etc is a MICROgenetic

MACROgenetic activites have decades on decades of testing...
MICROgentic  activities DO NOT.
