Note that the article suggests that there is "no more inconvenience than a colonoscopy" - that all happens through the anus, no turd eating is involved.
I agree, or taken as a suppository (to prevent break down in the stomach?) I'd much prefer to have an entire yoghurt shoved up my ass than someone else's poop.
It's been treated like a scientific breakthrough in a very technical way - but it amounts to shoving someone else's healthier shit into your ass.
