"Hi, such an interesting conversation. IMO first one has to postulate that there is something we must change in the "traits" of a human being., which I believe stems from a very old theory of eugenicists."
Look around. You don't see room for improvement?

"There is still today so much research and work that can be done going forward without editing genes, the homeopathic route, the natural remedy routes, holistic solutions that Big Pharma won't acknowledge or will dismiss."
I do not support forcing people to give up natural 'remedies' or holistic 'solutions' if they are so inclined. Neither do I support forcing people to use genetic enhancement.
"Are we talking engineered bodies?"
We are talking about healthier bodies and minds, but only for those who wish to take advantage of the technology.
"Q: Would you rather talk to a robot or a Human? Q: Would you prefer an analysis from a machine or a human expert?"
Those are non-sequitur comments. That is not genetic enhancement.
"I think CRISPR is still in the EXPERIEMNTAL STAGES and lots of funding."
CRISPR is past the experimental stage and is in the developmental stage.
Here is a list of human traits that could sure as hell use improvement. Let me know which ones you disagree with.
As I write, those studying psychometrics are researching which genomic profile influences human traits. This is a complex endeavor, as virtually all traits are polygenic. It requires using very powerful computers and programs to quickly sort and analyze massive data sets.

Integrity, intelligence, inquisitiveness, intuitiveness, industriousness, insight, inspiration, imagination, inventiveness, and intentness.
