[he nods in agreement - that's fine. he doesn't care enough to push. as for the question:]
Yes.
Take Reliver technology for example: once the details of it breach containment of my strict surveillance, others in the world will have access to cloning technology. It will be replicated and repeated for everyone who is afraid of dying, which is most people even if they refuse to admit it. Or worse, governments will use it to enhance manpower for military conquests. [which is something that makes scien frown, clear distaste for the idea] That blueprint can never leave the Institute, or else it will spell out an era of war and societal collapse. Human greed will make it inevitable.
The only exception to this idea is time travel - but by nature of its process, that makes it so that an end point is never an end point for the person experiencing it.
[since you can always just try again if you don't like the results, but it'll just create a branching reality so]
