Epigenetics can adapt and change only so much. There would be noticeable effects eventually. But how much is literally not knowable to us and our level of biological understanding.
It changes humanity into a parthenogenic species and those rarely last long. Of course that's over geological times. But what obliterates over that time period must have
some kind of effect over short terms, right?
