Movable stores of adipose tissue which we could use to shape our bodies into the statistics we chose thus avoiding implants filled with nasty chemicals.
Bodies that automatically fatten up during the colder weather or the ability to go into hibernation, to avoid heat loss and the need to burn more fossil fuels.
