"Noa, you've crossed a line this time," Korneli said, his voice tinged with disappointment. "Your actions today have jeopardized not only your safety but also the progress of this project. We can't allow emotions and personal beliefs to cloud our judgment. The potential benefits of this Baby Machine cannot be discarded because of one individual's objections."
