But that's not the point. The point is, when all is said and done, the best option in life is to be simply healthy. This means to have all the senses intact as well.

You have no idea what is like to be hearing imapired, so you can only imagine what's life being deaf or blind or whatever. You only THINK it's a matter of "adjusting".


Sure deaf people can be happy as they are. They got to be, otherwise it's exercise in eternal frustration. But really everyobody would preffer to be born  normal in every way.


  People if forced can survive without hands and legs with just a torso.

see a movie "Freaks" which is perfect example that any handicapp is possible to overcome. does that mean we should forfeit all devices because it's possible for a man to live without any?


 


No, from such point of view hearing is not neccessary to live. So are not hands or legs or sight or anything else. Paraplegics and quadriplegics lead successful and fulfilled life as well.


The real question is, is hearing helping to access all life's possibilities BETTER?

EASIER? Less stressful on the individual? and if yes, why not provide it the best way there is?
