    This will totally end well, and without any unforseen consequences.

    I just want a chance at some cool mutant powers before the air becomes unbreathable due to unchecked forest fires and rampant airborne diseases. Whatever gets us to mutation quicker!

    You need more than synthetic chromosomes to build artificial people. In fact, you don’t even need synthetic chromosomes at all. They really have nothing to do with each other.
