Comment on The Villain of CRISPRparent

That might be possible if CRISPR was just a site specific knock out system.

It's not. Your theory does not explain how site specific gene integration of transgenic products is possible if CRISPR/Cas is not an efficient site specific nuclease. If Cas9 is not cutting the DNA at the specific site so the transgenic product can integrate there, we wouldn't be getting the results seen.
