In other words, should the designers take responsibility for tampering with the superior mechanics of mother nature? Or should they continue to deny the fact that they were not advanced enough to fully understand what they were tampering with, or should they attempt to hide thier shame by placing the onus on us?

So, I guess that this thought experiment presupposes that some advanced civilization came here and turned us all into these carnal beasts that have been genetically modified - as opposed to allowing us all to remain the carnal beasts that naturally express ourselves by killing and eating each other without a second thought.

I find it amusing that there are so many obviously intelligent people who can't imagine a fully natural way that the human animal could have become separated from the planetary herd. One camp invents gods to yank humanity out of the pack and the other camp has space aliens doing the honors. There actually is a very natural explanation for the unique nature of the human body/brain relationship, but unless you re-examine the true nature of physical reality, you'll never understand that explanation.
No gods and no aliens. Just a fundamental ignorance of the nature of physical reality.
