That mountain of evidence mostly says that the
in vivo prenatal environment is kind of... awful, though. As in, mother and foetus competing for nutrients with better maternal genes resulting in better
defenses against the placental "parasite", and thus worse developmental outcomes; and better foetal genes resulting in better
parasitic strategies to penetrate the uterine wall, and thus worse perinatal health outcomes for the mother.
I'd honestly stake >$10k, at this point, on the hypothesis that "growing children from embroyos in vitro, hooked up to an unlimited nutrient drip" will result in children much healthier than "regular" children, along every axis we can think of. (Presuming, of course, that we first figure out every micro-nutrient such a drip would be required to provide.)
