I do not think so. Finally there are issues of rights and justice, about the allocation of benefits and burdens, who stand to win, who stand to lose, whether the gains from new crops are likely to be distributed fairly. There are many issues here. After all, we are not able to choose whether our electricity comes from nuclear power stations or not, however much we disapprove of them. So decisions about the future of our food are being taken in the US or in Switzerland.
Consumers feel they have lost control and blame the technology, and some wish to ban it altogether.
I do not believe that that is a sensible way ahead, but that we should respond by regulating this coming change, so that it is the least harmful and the most helpful to us all.
