A normal person will not consider a pacemaker to be superior alternative by your own argument. It’s inferior to healthy and functional natural “clock signal”.
Yes, that’s the point; the initial definition you used to lay out the premise is iffy, but I think we’ve waffled on that note more than enough already…
Just to be clear, your proposed tag description_ seems fine to me, it’s more in line with the typical usage of “cyborg.”
If you mean the last several pictures
I’m referring to characters in the vein of
Robocop or
Major Kusanagi, although I suppose a protective artificial skin grafted onto the original torso (and limbs) could fit in the same category, possibly maybe, depending on how
autisticly it’s defined.
The tag doesn’t have to be “full body
prosthetic” specifically, it’s just the first term that popped into mind – thanks, GitS.
Personally, I’d be fine with simply rolling all full body prosthetics/artificial skins/armor implants into
augmented – possibly together with
exoskeleton where applicable, though that one seems to be mostly of the chitinous variety at the moment.
