Does that mean it's OK though, surely there must be some toll on the
body, stress or energetically. If it can randomly insert can't it
cause cancer? Is that worth the potential for some neat horizontal
gene transfer to happen as a result of infection?
:/
:P

I guess that's the trade-off of evolution, it costs and could suck for
a while, but maybe eventually it get's better/cooler/ and unforeseen
things can happen.
