He cured a genetic disease. Wtf is wrong with that?!

The hell he did. You need to go back and read what his experiment was. He says he hopes to someday cure a genetic disease. In the meantime, he was just testing to make sure he could edit genes without causing long term health problems which he won't know until the kids grow up and have them!!
