Radiation giving super powers feels very "wrong" for anything courting Star Trek, to me at least.
And genetic engineering is very "evil" for some reason in the original and next generation series. Then again, its edge was rounded heavily for DS9.
But for it to effectively permeate society would effectively change what the default human species has become. That seems like something that should be carefully considered before implementing.
